The Playground

The Playground

Hey everyone!

Over in another thread we were talking about our "inner child", what play looks like and how we incorporate kids activities in our everyday life to help us learn to be the children we never got to be.

I am one to completely embrace my inner child, we go on adventures, watch movies like Madeline and The Little Princess, she likes to paint and be creative but has the most beautiful heart and gentle soul.

She is the daughter I never got to be and I'm the mother I always wanted to be.

So I thought to make a thread just for them, where we can be the childlike version of ourselves, share the excitement and encourage each other to embrace our inner child to find the healing they can bring to our lives.

  1. What do you do for fun?
  2. Is there anything particularly silly that you do to make others laugh?
  3. What movies make you burst into giggles?
  4. How do you bring yourself joy through children's activities?

I was reminded today of pillow forts when @Jynx missed a notification.

I had the strong desire to throw an endless supply of pillows and then jump on them

Re: The Playground

@avant-garde omg sooooo snug!! I love this idea, I haven't made a blanket fort since I was a kid! If I have energy tonight I might see if I can make one hehehe

Have you seen the show Community? There's a double episode about a giant blanket fort, very funny!!

I got to my meeting earlier and they were having baby rhyme time at the library and this one little girl didn't copy the staff members actions, she copied mine... I only got to do one song "if you're happy and you know it" but it was fun

Re: The Playground

aww so cute that the lil baby copied you!! such a wholesome moment @avant-garde i used to work with lil kiddos and do rhymes with them, they're smiles n lil giggles were so precious. 'if your happy and your know it' and 'wheels on the bus' were classics but always fun to do with them!

what meeting did you have? hope it went well 🙂
