Monday Parenting Pin it Party 22nd July

This week in the UK it has been mostly hot, hotter and really hot. So it seemed appropriate that the Monday Parenting Pin it Party top pics should be hot weather activities.

Science Sparks shared fun ways to cool off (and learn) with ice. I love these colourful fruit ices.

Regular followers of our blog may know we have an allotment, and if you follow us on Twitter and Instagram you may have even seen some pics taken there. Unsurprisingly, given my allotment habit I think it's really important that my children know how food grows (and take part in growning some). Coombe Mill share our passion and made these delicious looking ice lollies from 'pick your own' raspberries. The must have picked alot because they also share some other raspberry recipes too.

If chocolate is more up your street then this yummy milkshake and Nutella lollies from Anyonita Nibbles also looks great for cooling off.

What have you been up to this week? If you blog and have any parenting posts (anything from your thoughts on parenting to kids activities) please link up your ideas below.

How the Monday Parenting Pin it Party works:

• Link up a parenting post (old or new) and we will share it on our party pin board
• We’d love it if you’d grab the party badge from below or link back some other way from the post so people can find all the other entries
• If you have a Pinterest account it would be great if you’d follow the party board and the hosts and do leave us your id in the comments so we can follow you back.
• Try and visit at least two other contributors either via the linky or via the board and comment/share/repin the ones you like.
• Don’t forget to leave your Pinterest ID for them too so we can all find some great new pinners to follow.

You can check out all the previous posts here at our Pinterest board too.
