I’m loving two British Blogs right now: The Madhouse and NurtureStore.
I love blogs about play that feature a variety of play activities. There is the argument, I guess , that if you are a generalist of everything then you are great at nothing! But I really enjoy giving a taste of things to my boys. There are plenty of blogs that write on ONE aspect of play that I read and follow as well. There is something about seeing another parent struggle with things but the children love it that I feel drawn to. After all play isn’t just about us but stepping out of our comfort zone to give them many different experiences. Both blogs are really candid about their outcomes, struggles and share their joy through clear photographs and explanations.
I feel they experience play with their little ones.
