What a lovely day I had at Hilly Fields last Tuesday...
Seeing the kids playing with mud and getting creative in their free outdoor play reinforces my belief that nature is the best toy for them.

Here some inspiring thoughts and images:

Like a deep slow sleep

Misty and hidden

Lifting up to the purple skies

Hazy lazy crazy

The dark in her eyes

Now shifting

Upward and outward spiraling

Mysteriously and curiously lifted


The rolling and rocking

Upwards and downwards

Revisiting the past finding

Centre of gravity

Realizing and accepting

Reality 

Reality 

Is me and only me

Loving and living 

Being, just being

Myself and nothing else

Simplicity Parenting and Pikler principles of child development

Pleased to announce that Susanna Wallis magic felt creations will be on display and for sale at the talk tomorrow, Church Of Ascension!

The simple bare necessities

Look for the bare necessities

The simple bare necessities

Forget about your worries and your strife

I mean the bare necessities

Old Mother Nature's recipes

That brings the bare necessities of life

Good food, drink...rest...sleep

Art and beauty

Nature

Love, love, love...all you need is love               

And Joy

Music and dance

And Peace
