Active Kids - Happy Kids

Here in the UK it’s been half term week and our schools have been closed. Hopefully the school children, teachers and all support staff have enjoyed a well deserved break. True this past weeks weather hasn’t been the best, and even in Monaco, last weekend for the Monaco Grand Prix, it wasn’t superb weather …although I’m sure everyone who went and took in the atmosphere of the Grand Prix had a fantastic time … and if you were looking out for me and Eddie sorry we didn’t make it there ! LOL

We’ve had a good week doing some blogging, of course, but also relaxing and spending time with family and friends.

History has been repeating itself as it does with many families. The grandchildren are all into a variety of sport and activities, and like parents before them our children are discovering ‘Active Kids are Happy Kids’, and taking their children (our grandchildren) to various activities. Between the five grandchildren some of the activities they enjoy are Ballet, ‘Twinkle toes’ (Dance and Music for Pre School), Art Club, Cubs, Swimming, Cycling, Football, Playing video games, reading books ….and generally having fun. Yes, it is important to get the mix right because we all need time to ‘blob out’ as I call it and sit quietly ….even if for a short while.

I love watching them enjoy themselves, I love walking with them, playing with them, reading with them YES you could say I LOVE THEM DEARLY it’s true! Each one with his or her personality and it’s great.

We’ve even been ‘On the Road to Rio’ and enjoyed a mini football tournament complete with medal presentation. Or simply enjoyed ourselves. A trip to a circus was memorable the clowns hilarious and the grandchildren thought it great fun.

Memories, special moments ….. you can’t beat it, besides which I like being active too. But tonight I will be sitting down enjoying a great LCHF dinner and a delicious dessert of strawberries and double cream which funnily enough the grandchildren love too.




All the best Jan

Hi Anon ... thanks for your comment, which I agree with.

For all of us, whatever our age, it's important to get the lifestyle balance right. Some find it easier than others ..... but we must all do our best.

All the best Jan
