February may be the shortest month of the year but it certainly has been a busy month here at Adventures of Adam. We completed our 31 Day Sensory Play Challenge and went straight into our Five Senses Play Challenge. So far we have completed the sense of touch, smell, taste and hearing with the sense of sight week during March.
We also managed to achieve two blogging goals – ones that I made right at the start of our blogging journey. I wanted to have reached 100,000 page views within a year. I managed to reach the goal with a month to spare. Now working towards the next huge goal!
Another goal was to write a guest post for Red Ted Art. This month our Clothespin Heart Activity appeared on Red Ted Art!
As it was a Half Term Holiday this month Adam had many adventures that did not make it to the blog. He had his second theatre visit when we saw Room On A Broom and his first cinema trip to watch Shaun The Sheep.
Adam had his first experience of family bowling with his two cousins. We discovered Nana is good at bowling! Daddy managed not to come last.
It was also a chance to explore Nana’s wood. Adam and Beth have turned this branch into a broom from “Room on a Broom” and spend their time re-enacting the story.
In January we managed to blog 46 times. I said this would be a record we would not be beating any time soon. However, this month we opened our blog up to several guest bloggers and came very close to beating this score. Despite three less days we managed an amazing 44 posts.
