Pure, unadulterated, fun.
Oct 25, 2020
Fun is in a bit of short supply at the moment.
But I do really feel that there is a lot that we can do to create a little fun in our lives. To counteract the gloom and doom.
I've just come back from a trip to Legoland which I've been planning with my girls for absolutely ages. They are totally Lego mad. I thought for a while we weren't going to be able to go because of covid restrictions but we made it in the end. My girls were over the moon.
For two funfilled days….I rediscovered my inner child! We literally went on every single ride and attraction. For a moment……I thought “Why am I going on this roller coaster? It’s going to scare the life out of me!!!”
Anyway, I did it. And you know what, it was fun! And it made me scream and laugh and giggle and shout and screw my eyes tight shut….. and I didn't care because it was fun!
I think I enjoyed it so much, because it was an immersion into something that took my head out of the real world. You have no choice…you have to live in the moment.
So even in the most restricted situations there’s so many ‘fun’ avenues to explore. So, we're on half term at the moment so we’re planning lots of little pockets of fun. Next weekend I've promised my girls a little Halloween party, as opposed to the usual trick or treat in the street.
We are going to make some decorations, dress up, we’re going to have a little trick or treat around the house, knock on doors to all the rooms. And we're just going to have a bit of fun. I think that's what we need to do at the moment, grab the fun wherever it is.
Talking of fun….I’m going to do a little Halloween “draw along” this week. I'd love it if you could join me. I'm going live on Facebook in my Create! Art school club at Wednesday at 12 o’clock. It's just gonna be a little bit of spooky, arty fun for everyone. To join my Create! art school club click here.
