The summer weather may have come to an abrupt end but we have had so much fun this month it is hard to remember it all! This month's Center Parcs Tots 100 blogger challenge is to record our summer memories and their blog has loads of great ideas on how to keep special moments alive way past the holidays. My favourite tip is to get the kids to paint or draw their favourite summer memory - great to find out what sticks out for them amongst all the fun plus they get to be creative and arty. I asked Little E what her favourite memory of the summer was she very quickly decided on our boat trip to France. Good choice as we had a lovely day sailing across to visit Nanny Ma and Pa as they renovate the family barn. The next step was for Little E to create some artwork to capture the voyage. I was open minded as to what she'd draw but she did a pretty amazing job! You can see the ferry on the sea with the 4 of us onboard and the cars all lined up in the bottom of the ship. I esspecially like that we are levitating in the boat! This is one of the first pictures she has drawn which actually depict a recognisable scene. Definitely frameworthy. Here are some photos of our little adventure (Little I's first time at sea!) This is my entry to the Center Parcs and Tots100 August challenge. If I’m chosen, I would like to visit Elveden Forest.
