I don't drive (can't drive or at least never got round to learning...) so me and the Little Man walk everywhere. Until recently the Little Man got a ride in his pushchair but over the last few months I have been leaving the buggy at home and encouraging him to walk. This is mostly successful, although I do seem to end up giving him a piggy back half the way home (Uphill, with a rucksack full of shopping too. I should be so fit!)
To encourage his walking we have a number of different ways into town. There's the straightforward 'down the main road' way for when time is short or I just want to get it over with. There is the 'round the back' way - fairly self-explanatory. And then, when there is time to kill or I sense the Little Man is in need of a little extra encouragement, there is the 'Adventure Way'.
Of course it helps if you have a friend to share the adventure with so let me introduce you to Mr T Dinosaurus...
 |
| Ok, we are going on an adventure! |
 |
| He gets a bit heavy after a while... |
 |
| Obviously dinosaurs like to jump in big muddy puddles too... |
 |
| He's not being rude, he's eating the wind. It tastes of apples and pears and strawberry milk. Apparently. |
 |
| Mr T gets very excited when he gets a go on the 'Trolly Dash' |
 |
| You can't expect to be carried ALL the way Mr T! |
 |
| ...and finally a lesson in letters... |
It must be great being three, there is a whole world of adventures waiting to be discovered :)

Mr T, I thought he would have a mohican and some serious bling!!! X
ReplyDeleteHis eyes used to light up if that counts? Little Man named him that coz he couldn't say 'Tyrannasaurus' :)
ReplyDeletewhat a great idea to jazz up the walk home - bet the lm loves taking Mr T with him. Does Mum end up giving HIM a piggy back too?
ReplyDeleteThe adventure way sounds so much fun, it must be great being three, no cares or worries and frustrations ... don't worry LM you got it all to come.
