Things with buttons and batteries can deliver some relief but often the solution is to be found in the good old fashioned games cupboard. We do love a board game in this house. So much fun to be had right there. The games cupboard doesn't get opened as often as it should and we always wonder why when we do get around to family games night.
It is great to see that the good old fashioned games never really go out of fashion.
Today at the Out of the Box Festival for children the giant games were out and the kids were having a great time playing Dominoes, Checkers and Connect 4. Enjoying a classic game of Dominoes Falling was three-year-old Holly. Yep, hours of fun right there and not a battery in sight.
need patience to stand all those up
ReplyDeleteThey really are big dominoes!!
ReplyDeleteImagine the domino rally you could make from dominoes that size! She looks a little lost in her thoughts there!
ReplyDeleteSo nice when they do ditch the battery stuff - but can be so hard to get them to do it.
ReplyDeleteLove those outdoor dominoes! Such a cute face playing too!
ReplyDeleteLove the fact she's enjoying her own little thoughts.
ReplyDeleteFab shot! She looks so still somehow.
ReplyDeleteGreat to see children being encouraged to play outside.
ReplyDeleteGreat photo, love it
ReplyDeleteThat is a fab photo and yes it's true that kids think that they can't cope without battery operated games, but they love those sort of games! We went to a football thing last week and my boys had great fun playing giant Jenga and darts, having declared that they were 'boring' games!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photo :-)
ReplyDeleteAwww she's so pretty :)
ReplyDeleteLovely idea for a festival. Big ones are far more fun than tiny fiddly ones!
ReplyDeleteLovely shot :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful little girl, and such a clear photograph.
