Awww my toddler loves jumping in puddles too and I love to watch her. Sadly even though we live in Scotland there is a surprising lack of puddles when I actually want them lol.

These kids are having an absolute ball.

Love that they collectively decided one side is the "entrance" to the puddle and the other is the exit. They could've just turned 180 degrees and ran right back through it but nope gotta run around the puddle to the correct entry point

If anyone has, like I do, a toddler or preschooler who loves to jump in puddles/be out when it’s wet I can’t recommend a Tuffo suit enough. Baggy enough to wear a thick coat underneath, long zipper for easy in and out, my two year old loves getting to play in the puddles, wet grass, and mud off a Pacific Northwest winter in it

Australia too! Bush kinder! You climb a tree, you have to be able to get down; nice big stompy steps to scare away snakes; don't touch the red back or white tail spideys; if you can safely lift it, you can chuck it in the creek and most importantly NO BUSH WEES.

We don't stop playing because we grow old. We grow old because we stop playing.

When I lived with my uncle, he was backside of 40 years old I was in my 30s... walking out of a grocery store, it rained while we were inside. On the way to the car, he ran to a huge ass puddle and started kicking water at me... Me being the man child I am... ran and jumped in the puddle, exploding the water everywhere. Than it was on... we found all the puddles and kicked all the water at each other...

Totally making a mess But worth every second

Being an adult, you look worriedly at this and carefully avoid every little splosh so that your white sneakers don't get dirty, or even your boots. This way we add another worry to all the other worries we carry, even if temporary.

I miss being a kid.

Can we normalize jumping puddles as an adult!!! I so often see adults thinking no one is watching jump into a puddle and immediately stop when they realize they are not alone. Why is this socially uacceptable to do? It's not unhealthy, compromising, or hurting anyone to jump puddles.

I wonder if this is Japan. In the smaller Japanese cities, I would see kids dressed like this, with hats and oversized rain gear, on their way home from school. All the kids in the class would form a huge line and hold hands and the teachers would guide them home or wherever they were going. It was the cutest thing ever.

This is adorable.

Kids just want to play and have fun with other kids. Their entire life is wrapped up in eating, sleeping, or the desire to have fun with everyone.

Meanwhile we’re all wrapped up in stock market crashes, War, jobs, and death.

Man I wish I was a kid again.

I avoid puddles if I'm in shoes that will allow water onto my socks because having to wear wet socks is the most miserable feeling. If my socks (and pants) aren't getting wet, I don't bother to avoid anything. You don't have to be a kid to not tie yourself up in knots about keeping all of your physical possessions in the best of shape while deprioritizing your own feelings.

Sorry to hijack your comment, but OP (Shortery) appears to be a karma-farming bot that can only copy and paste other people's stuff. The account was born on December 19, 2021, woke up two days ago, and has the following four activities:

Here it copied/pasted /u/stealing1's submission/title from here. It isn't even rehosted.

Its comment before this is a copy/paste of /u/HAL__Over__9000's previous top comment.

Its submission/title before that is a copy/paste from here.

Its submission/title before that is a copy/paste of /u/sunflowertkay's submission/title here.

For anyone not familiar with karma-farming bots (and how they hurt reddit and redditors), this page or this page may help to explain.

They're trying to introduce Forest School in the UK but it's nowhere near as developed as abroad. My mother is a forest school teacher and says it does wonders with kids who are usually distracted or badly behaved.
