One of my goals for this year is daily hands on play with the kids. This is something I do every day with them but I find that I'm not focusing on my time with them and mainly focusing on when I can finish playing with them and go off and do something for myself. I've also found while hubby has been on holiday from work that I've been very lazy and keep directing the kids to their father.
Last year a blog I found and now read Hands on : as we grow did 30 days to hands on play and every day had a different challenge, each nice and simple and easy to do with your kids but also fun.
I'm going to use some of their ideas as a weekly theme for 52 weeks of hands on play with the kids but will have to get a move on as the first week is pretty much other.
I'll post the full list later but week one is... Pretend Islands
Check out http://beafunmum.com/ they have lots of awesome ideas too (despite the rather lame name). - Helen
