Puddle Jumping

After a bit of rain during the week there was an awesome puddle at the rotten log for us to explore.  We measured it to see how deep it was, the children did this by using sticks.  Once we had worked out how deep it was, the highest it got was to our knees which was very exciting, puddle jumping was on the agenda.  We all had fun walking and running through the puddle.  Jake even ended up going for a swim much to his surprise!  After we were all worn out from laughter we went to explore roly poly hill where of course we all had to roll.  This brought back childhood memories for me but I don't remember getting that real dizzy head spinning feeling like I did today.  After rolling I found a nice little cubby to rest in.  It wasn't long before I was joined by some friends and over a hot chocolate and chocolate chippie biscuits (these were made out of leaves and pine cones) we had the most amazing conversations.  After all this fun it was back to shed to sit around a cozy fire pop popcorn and have lunch together.  What a wonderful way to finish a truly magical day.
