This Week at Kids of the Wild

It was back to school for us this week. That supposedly means lots of me-time walking with Fidget and more time for blogging, but it didn’t really work out as planned. Mainly because we collected our 9-week old rescue kitten on Monday and everything else went on hold!

We had a fab campfire sing-song at Cubs on Thursday night and are now sat listening to the rain and wind, glad for an indoor evening.

For something a little crafty if the weather’s bad this weekend, try out our painted matchbox memory box or if you need some new waterproof boots have a read of my BOGs review.
