Blowing Dandelions – Mummascribbles

It’s when you are out with a child that you see the world for what it is. You see it through their eyes. How the very simplest of things can bring such joy. We think a lot of the time that we need to be doing things that are exciting, that cost money, that is going to give them an incredible experience, but sometimes all they need is something so simple, that wows their brain without being over-stimulating.

On Monday, we took Zach for a walk to get him to nap (how many of you have to do the same?!). Of course we had to let him walk for a while and feed the ducks and it was during this time that the simplest of things gave him the biggest delight.

Dandelions.

We all know how much fun they are when you are a kid and when he spotted one, he went and picked it, put it to his mouth, blew, and the biggest smile appeared on his face.

“I blewed it didn’t I” he said!

He then had to blow many more. The funniest thing he found was when the wind would blow it before he could! Hilarious

The whole time I was just watching him in delight. This little two year old finding the greatest joy in nature.

Beautiful.
