Garden Fun for the Outdoor Baby!


I don't know about you but I find my 1 year old is SUCH an outdoor type of child!..
He gets so excited every time he sees me or his Dad putting on our shoes or our coat. And when we go to unlock the door he kicks his legs in excitement. When we go out, he can go from a screaming teething baby to the most angelic little darling in a matter of seconds. There really isn't anything he loves better than being outdoors.

TRIKE
When we were thinking up presents for his 1st birthday which has just passed (read more here) we knew we had to opt for something outdoorsy! And after a few um's and ah's, we finally ended up buying him.. a trike - which he absolutely adores! I am so happy with our decision to buy it. The trike we brought also grows with him so we'll really get our moneys worth. We brought the Little Tikes trike from Amazon.

BALL PIT / SAND PIT / PADDLING POOL COMBO

My parents brought Ethan a pool with a lid on from Argos for his first birthday. Both sides can be used for either water as a paddling pool, a sandpit with lots of sand and sand tools or as a ball pit full of fun bright balls. At the moment, as the weathers not quite warm enough for sand or water we're using it as a ball pit inside and outside, which Ethan is loving! I can't wait until summer as I know he'll love the water and the sand. :)

BABY SWING

We recently got a swing from ASDA for our back garden. We have a park 5 minutes up the road but as Ethan loves the swings so much, we really wanted one for our own garden. The fantastic thing about this swing is that it will grow with him! The frame can be extended and there's a second swing seat that we can put on once he grows out of the toddler stage of this swing. I had a swing as a child and I really wanted Ethan to have one, so when we came across this one which is on offer at the moment for just £40 (insanely good value!) the fact that it converted and grew with him made this the perfect choice. I can't believe that for such a great price we will get so many years out of it. He thinks it's absolutely great and it doesn't take up too much room in our garden which leaves more than enough room for me to get my hands on something I've wanted for a LONG time - a swing chair! ;) The swing is called Plum 2 in 1 metal swing set from Asda.

Does your little one like to play outside? If so, what do they love to play with the most?

  1. I regret not getting Amelia a trike for her birthday.She too loves being outside,and gets frustrated in my arms when there are other kids playing in the street & she can't join in. We are going to get one for her in the next few weeks. www.alittlelondoner.com
