Before there were barbie dolls (1959) and electronic games there were clothes pegs, cat flaps (maybe) and aunt's willing to lie on the laundry floor at 6am in the morning playing 'throw the pegs in and out' :) A game requiring skill and concentration.. or not!
The theme for City Daily Photobloggers is 'the beauty of simplicity'. My granddaughter et ma fille are très belle and the game couldn't be simpler, so hopefully mission accomplished :) Very much looking forward to seeing simple, beautiful images from around the world .. Happy 1st of April, take care, stay safe and keep your wits about you on this day when jokers abound :)
simple is always better!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fabulous post! What could be more simple than the simple pleasures of a child. I totally forgot about the "jokers" aspect of April 1st. Thanks for the warning.
ReplyDeleteVery sweet, Grace! The wee one has a lot of hair!
ReplyDeleteThis is so sweet, Grace! Truly the beauty of simplicity!
ReplyDeleteWhat a darling and what a beautiful post Grace!
ReplyDeleteSo many games could be created with clothes pegs. Love this one using the cat flap. And your daughter is wonderful for joining in the young one's game.
ReplyDeleteClothes pegs, old sticks, some cardboard boxes and a child's (at least mine when I was a child) imagination will run wild. Simple things in life are so wonderful. Why do we clutter ourselves with digital stuff!? Sorry, Blogger will not accept the code for an interrobang.
ReplyDeleteLots of beauty here, that's for sure.
ReplyDeleteAnd a mysterious hand!
Great theme day post.

ReplyDeleteVery sweet. It really is the small things in life that are so important.
ReplyDeleteWhen my niece was young, one of her favourite toys was a wooden spoon.

ReplyDeleteSweet choice, Grace, great interpretation of the theme !
ReplyDeleteAww, Grace. That reminds me of the big Niece who just took her first steps along chairs, handing me over one clothes peg after another, then looked over to my Mum, thought about it, took all her courage and made it over to her without falling - she was so proud of herself.
ReplyDeleteShe had an ear infection, too.
You have me in sweet tears here...
She is a doll! Adorable portraits!
ReplyDeleteI love these shots. Perfect for Theme Day.
