Every day Baby and I spend some time on our garden. Ever since we gave the garden a makeover, it has become a lovely place to spend time. I sometimes find myself uninspired, without exciting plans with which to entertain Baby. I never need worry, as a simple visit to her Fairy Garden makes her (and I) very happy. Even more so, if it involves bubbles. Last week Baby learned to say ‘bubble’ and made her first bubble. She was amazed! I was quite impressed that she could put the wand back in the bottle, all by herself!
Bubbles are truly magical and I love seeing her face light up.
We also spend a lot of time in the play house drinking tea, out of plant pots…. and playing ‘where’s the baby gone’ behind the door.
I love how so much pleasure can be gained for both of us, from such a simple acts. Our simple days in our Fairy Garden.
I am linking up with the following fabulous bloggers and their lovely linkys.

What a lovely post. It’s good to remember the simple things because I know some parents that only feel you can have fun and do things with your children if you have money, it’s so sad x
I love playing outside with my daughter and you really have to make the most of it before the rain comes!!!!
Your daughter certainly seems as though she loves bubbles 🙂 so cute! x
Bubbles are always great fun x
What a gorgeous, happy post #whatsthestory
What a lovely post, am loving the bright yellow cardigan x
Great fine motor skills there, baby! Bubbles are always a favourite in our house, too.
What a lovely post! Sometimes its the simplest things that capture the most imagination in children! xx
Lovely pics. Bubble play can be so much fun and magical! #MagicMoments
You can’t beat playing in the garden can you? simple pleasures! xx
We have really loved the dry weather so far this year and was sad to wake up to rain this morning. Outdoor play is so important for little ones
Ah, the simple things are often the loveliest. My kids love bubbles, too, always guaranteed to make them happy! Beautiful photos x
I’m loving reading all the #MagicMoments and #OrdinaryMoments this week – the simplest things will really spark off memories for us all in the future I think. Little Man loves bubbles too. There is a bubble session in the Gymboree class that we do every week and he’ll usually stop what he’s doing to join in the magic of chasing and popping them. Gorgeous photos x
Looks like she’s having a wonderful time out in the garden, beautiful photos 🙂
I love spending time in the garden with my monkeys. It’s always quality time with lots of family fun. You can’t beat it! #whats the story
I am yet to meet a child that isn’t totally transfixed by bubbles, it’s so sweet isn’t it? And how clever of Baby to be able to say bubble. LL still is hardly saying a word, little monkey, but she understands everything! x
Im looking outside now and wishing that Id spent more time playing outside whilst we could. The weather has really changed. I love that bubble photo by the way – a great capture!
What lovely photos. Simple pleasures like this are often the most meaningful x
I love bubbles in the garden x
This is such a lovely post.
So nice to have that space that is special to you both.
She always looks so happy in the pictures you take.
Beautiful =)
Your garden sounds great. And your baby is so lucky to have such a lovely play house too. It’s a joy to see such happy pictures.
Gorgeous pics from your garden! Your little girl looks so happy and content… Love it when the easiest things give such pleasure 🙂
…And CONGRATULATIONS again on the #LoveAllDads awards – I’m moving a step beyond twitter congrats! 😉
I love to see bubbles in photos! What a brilliant space you have there!
Bubbles are always such great fun. Simple things that cost so little and yet mean so much.
Looks like wonderful fun. Next week’s Country Kids is all about our Fairy Garden too, they are great fun for little ones with whatever magic you choose to add.
I don’t think you ever grow out of having fun with bubbles!
Hello there, it never ceases to amaze me how much fun our little man has in the garden, doing something and nothing makes him very happy-he’s out there in all weathers! And it’s true that you can never have enough bubbles. Love your photos by the way x #magicmoments
Lovely pics, and I’m still in awe of your beautiful play house. I’m glad that you both still love being out there. It really is sometimes the simple pleasures that matter most.
Every time I see that house I weep with jealously! It is so amazing! She looked like she had so much fun. My two love the garden to. She always looks so well dressed bab x
It’s hard to beat bubbles really, isn’t it 🙂 gorgeous photos of baby enjoying them x
So so cute! F always asks if we can move somewhere with a garden, I think he would love to play in a little house and have bubbles. It really is the small things that bring out the joy in us. x
we love playing outdoors…. wishing it was still summer!
Ella used to love bubbles but for years she’d always end up tipping up the bottle of bubble solution because she concentrated so much on blowing the bubbles!
I love baby in her yellow cardi, it really suits her 🙂

Thank you, I have a bit of a yellow obsession with her clothes x
Bubbles can bring endless fun can’t they? I love times like this too…they make the best memories.

Just so much fun, Our dog loves catching them too! x
So many magical moments can be had in the great outdoors – and it’s free! We’re loving this beautiful weather as well and spending lots of time in our garden, looking after the plants. Enjoy 🙂

The simple things are always the best 🙂 x
what a gorgeous post x
Oh my! She is super cute 🙂
Mine all love bubbles but my 4yo isn’t the best at holding the bottle. Every time he tips it all down his front after two minutes then gets upset that he hasn’t got any bubbles left! Really cute pics of Baby x
Aww cute! Little children love the simplest of things, no real need to spend tons of money 🙂
I can’t wait until next Summer when we can do up our garden of the new house we’ve moved into and we can spend lots of time in the garden as a family. Grace will be toddling about by then so it’ll be nice to have summer BBQ’s, get her paddling pool and just relax and play together x x
Simple times are the absolute best! Doesn’t she look the cutest in her yellow cardi too! I kinda want that in my size 🙂 x

Lovely post and there is something very magical about bubbles – super photographs too.
We have those bubbles 🙂 #magicmoments
