Outdoor Activity: Rolling Down the Hill

L-O-V-I-N-G this gorgeous March weather. We’re outside playing in it everyday.

And we had a first the other day.

Henry rolled down our backyard hill! I’ve tried to do this with him a few other times and had no luck in getting him to do it. But this time, he suggested it! [I tried just a couple days ago...]

Rolling Down Hills Outdoor Play Activity

On a gorgeous afternoon while the boys were playing so nicely in their sandbox together, Henry came up to me and asked me to roll down the hill with him.

Of course I will!

So we rolled down the hill, time after time.

Giggling the hole way down.

George just giggled. I couldn’t for the life of him get him to lie down to show him how to roll. He just died laughing every time he saw us roll down.

Henry and I rolled a few times down together. That was his favorite [shh, mine too].

Lying our in front of each other, with are arms outstretched to each other. We held hands and said, Roll! 

And we rolled all the way down together.

Once that fun finally wore off, I was beat and needed a rest.

But Henry was ready to go.

And he did.

He raced down the hill.

How do they have so much energy?
I need it bottled please.

  1. Love it! isn’t it the best feeling ever, sometimes the best things really are free! Thanks so much for adding this to the link up, Kierna

  2. What fun! We did the same last fall and it was the first time I’d rolled down a hill in probably more than 30 years – and it was SO FUN! (I really think it should be considered a perfectly acceptable form of exercise for adults – what a happier place the world would be!) Thanks for sharing this at the Outdoor Play Party!

  3. What great fun, I would love to have a hill in our back yard to do that on. We did however manage running up and down hills at the park (well me chasing an escaping J) which was so much fun I can’t wait to do it again.
