{Outdoor Play Linky - Our Week Outdoors: June 10-16}



Join our Outdoor Play blog hop below and link up your own Outdoor Play activities!


Our Week Outdoors:

A daytrip to the Vienna Zoo (did you know that it was the world's first zoo?)



Learning new perspectives



Overcoming our fear of costumes



Running through tunnels



Pointing out the animals to each other



Getting a better look



Learning about the properties of metal (it gets very hot in the sun! Ouch!)



Sharing an ice-cream (strawberry, of course!)



Stretching ourselves with new physical challenges



Testing our sense of direction



Using our imaginations



Developing problem-solving skills and hand-eye coordination




Strengthening our muscles



Developing our senses

In the Garden


More mud play!



And more!



Finding poppies in the garden



Developing balance and gross motor skills



And being Princess Pea!


Now for our Outdoor Play blog hop!


Thanks to everyone who participated last week! Again, there were lots of wonderful contributions! My favourite this week was this outdoor chalkboard from Jen of Kitchen Counter Chronicles! I want one so bad!


Now, over to you....
