Mini Adventure No 1. Marshmallows over an open fireSunday November 27 2011

Inspired by Alastair Humphreys idea about Micro Adventures, I suddenly thought if we can have adventures on our doorsteps, so can our children, and Mini Adventures was born! With guidance from adults and a little imagination these adventures should not only give them great life skills, but also be loads of fun!!

Mini Adventure No 2. Exploring TreesTuesday January 03 2012

When I was a kid in the eighties, we could be out climbing trees and building dens all day long. It’s a very different story for many kids these days who spend their time playing on computers all day. Well rant over ha ha, but kids these days don’t explore trees as much as they used to, and although there is some risk to climbing trees, under parental supervision it can be great fun!
