Losone Beach can get very crowded on sunny days and bank holidays. We often visit in all sorts of weather conditions. It has a charm to entertain one, no matter the weather.

Today we arrived on two wheels and a very soar backside. The path we took was lumpy bumpy, gravel and full of bigger stones.
When out and about we like to play ‘High Five’ game while we catch our breath and rest our legs.

5 – Five things we SEE with our eyes
- Snowy mountains
- Rushing river Maggia
- Swaying trees in the wind
- Hungry ducks approaching thinking we are throwing bread but instead we were just playing with rocks
- Kids building sand castles between the stones
4 – Four things we FEEL/TOUCH
- Freezing water up until our ankles
- Shiny seaglass
- Warm breeze on our skin
- Smooth sand our feet

3 – Three things we can HEAR
- Cars passing by on the road above the other side of Maggia
- Warm wind swirls around
- Skidding rock on the wavy river
2 – Two things you can SMELL
- Smoke from a nearby fire
- Wet sand on our body
1 – One thing we can TASTE
- Fresh air, we can bit into freedom
Indeed we love this game so much, I decided to dedicate a category to such posts. I hope that once the kids are more tech savvy, they may like to take pictures of the high fives they come up with. For now we just aim to notice and add an adjective to the thing we highlight.

Do you play a similar game when the kids are bored or not feeling confident to join other kids on the playground? I am all ears, share in the comments please.
