2013 Summer Bucket List

I love writing lists and ticking things off so this year we’ve made a Summer Bucket List. In an ideal world I’d have a grown up bucket list (which picked up where my Day Zero list finished off) which would be full of craft and sewing projects. However, I have two pre-schoolers so let’s be realistic…

summer bucket list

Before the toddler starts Nursery we want to do the following:

  • Visit The Shard
  • Ride the bus to Eastcote House Gardens
  • Go plane spotting at Heathrow
  • Use our Peppa Pig World tickets
  • Visit the end of the line stations – Amersham, West Ruislip and Chesham
  • Take the tube to Richmond and sit by the Thames
  • Decorate the toddlers room before he starts Nursery
  • Make my Lego VW van
  • Visit the White Horse in Westbury
  • Master potty training
  • Take a trip to South Ken
  • Visit an Art Gallery
  • Go to Legoland
  • Take a trip on a big train
  • Visit our local RAF bunker
  • Dip our toes in the local Lido
  • Take the toddler on his first cinema visit to see Disney Planes

Goodbye blogging – hello summer of fun!

Sunday was better but we still spent a lot of time indoors, this time at Ikea seeking some storage solutions! Come Monday we were all itching to get out and about so we packed the car with the Bugaboo Bee, scooters, buckets and spades and headed to Ruislip Lido to tick another activity from our Summer Bucket List.
