Hello and welcome back to the Mischief and Memories linky for bloggers. We are half way through the Easter holidays and I’d never thought I’d say this, but I don’t think I can stand to even look at another piece of chocolate again (*or let’s say….at least a week! **just being realistic here hehe!). I feel like an extra large Cadbury’s creme egg!

This morning I had the most LOVELY surprise and saw this… our children’s picture book Wild, sat very happily in the Ladybird beach hut! Ekk!! They always say it’s the little moments that count, and this really did make my heart do a crazy ladybird loop the loop. We are mad about the Ladybird beach hut on the Essex coast. It’s in a beautiful spot, right on the edge of Walton on the Naze and Frinton where the sandy beach is heaven.

This week I’m linking up with some easy to make Spring chicks. We love how you can prop them up so they look like they are sitting down.
Thank you again to everyone who is joining in with our little community. Please do REMEMBER to read the linky rules and make sure you add the linky badge to your post.
We would like everyone’s comments in by 9pm on a Friday *Also, please do make sure that you check your incoming comments as they can sometimes slip though to spam.
Laura had a brilliant idea to bring our new #MischiefAndMemories over onto Instagram! Whoop whoop. To join in, tag your photo with the #MischiefAndMemories hashtag. We will ‘heart’ a selection of photos over the week, and then we will each feature 1 or 2 Instagram posts in our host posts. This week I am featuring fellow linky host Laura from Loopy Lou Laura with this little Happy Birthday tribute to Zach!

Drum roll please…. Our next set of top commenters, and therefore also our featured bloggers this week are Hannah from Hannah and the Twiglets and Sarah from Whimsical Mumblings. Yay! Thank you so much ladies – you are featured here and over at Laura and Kirsty’s blogs too.
#MischiefAndMemories is our brand new linky baby. ‘Our’ being – Kirsty from Navigating Baby, Laura from Loopy Lou Laura and myself . We’ve had a really good look at the Dream Team and can see whilst it twinkled oh-so brightly back in it’s hay day, times have changed and we want to strip things right back and look at what really matters to us moving forwards into 2021. Which is:
-Connecting and interacting with other bloggers.
-Building a strong family and lifestyle blogger community/tribe.
-Collating a fantastic collection of family and lifestyle posts each week, that our readers will want to dip in and out of, so it’s a #winwin all round.
-To have fun!
What type of posts can you link up to #MischiefAndMemories?
This was a tricky area as we’ve always welcomed bloggers from all niches to join in. However, as all three hosts are family lifestyle bloggers, we are now going to be encouraging linkers to add posts reflecting this area. This isn’t to say that we wouldn’t welcome a book review on Midnight Sun by Stephanie Meyers, but ideally, it should be an old or new relevant (in some way) post.
Here are some ideas for family lifestyle posts:
So as you can see, it’s still very open.
1. The #MischiefAndMemories linky will open on Sunday at 6am and close on Thursday at 9pm.
2. Add up to 2 blog posts to the linky. We would recommend leaving a day or two between adding each post for visibility.
3. Add the #MischiefAndMemories linky badge to the bottom of your own post or your blog sidebar.
4. Comment on:
-Each of the hosts posts.
-The post before your own.
-Any other post of your choice.
*Please ensure that you add #MischiefAndMemories in your comment as this will be used when checking comments.
The deadline for commenting is 9pm Friday.
5. Each host will feature the 2 top bloggers who have left the most comments on their following weeks #MischiefAndMemories post. This means that those 2 bloggers each week will receive 3 backlinks! Woohoo… *this is fantastic for bumping up your DA scores.
If you have any questions at all, please do DM one of the hosts and we will be happy to help.
We can’t wait to see you over there!
*By linking up, you agree to your link being visible and accessible via the list of linked blog posts included below, to us sharing your posts on social media (tagging you as relevant), and to us sharing your post on our sites if chosen as a featured post.
