HAVING FUN IN THE SUN, OUR KIDS OUR GARDEN IN FRANCE

What to do when you don't have a pool and it's hot, (this was before we built the pool).

1. Get a piece of tarpaulin, or something similar.

2. Drag out the hose, and connect to tap.

3. Connect hose to sprinkler system, and turn on tap.

4. Dance through the sprinkler.

And don't forget to tell mum & dad that you're watering the grass.

Then play on the swings as the sun goes down.

The sleeping sun reflecting the moon, it's time for bed!

OUR KIDS LIFE IN FRANCE, AND OURS - twittering into the pool

Things were moving fast now with the pool, and the surrounds were filled with the earth that was dug out for the pool, or at least some of it. This would later be tiled to make the "Plage", to put the sun loungers on. But first the liner had to be fitted. This was less complicated than we had first thought, probably due to the clear as mud instructions, you just had to be sure that there were no creases in it and this was done by vacuum, literally.

The kids were besides themselves when they got home to find blue in the pool, so as soon as the liner was fitted we decided to fill it with water for a test drive. As predicted, the kids were too impatient to wait for it to fill, this takes an absolute age, so it was shoes & socks off and in paddling as soon as there was a cm of water. And like twittering birds in a bath, boy did they have fun!
