E's favourite thing to do in a park is playing on the swings with Mum (or Dad!). He will slide down the slippery dip a hundred times, play in the sand pit and crawl through tunnels, but as soon as he sits on our lap for a swing he laughs and laughs. You know that adorable chuckle toddlers have that is so contagious you can't help but laugh along too and feel all warm and fuzzy inside?
Sometimes a 5 minute visit to the playground and time on the swings can be the difference between making it through the day happy, calm and content...or not - and that's just me!
