Have you got adventure loving kids that enjoy getting muddy? Last weekend I grabbed my kids and headed to Belvoir Castle to join TV explorer Ed Stafford and take part in the Fruit Shoot Mini Mudder obstacle course. It was a fantastic experience I\u2019d thoroughly recommend.\u00a0Courses are running up and down the UK until the end of September so there are lots of opportunities for you and your kids to get involved too.<\/p>\n

What is Fruit Shoot Mini Mudder?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Fruit Shoot have teamed up with the popular grown up Tough Mudder event to provide kids with a Mini Mudder adventure course focused on \u201cfun\u201d, \u201cteamwork\u201d, \u201cempowerment\u201d and \u201cpersonal accomplishment\u201d.<\/p>\n

\"Do<\/p>\n

My adventure seeking kids adored every moment of the Fruit Shoot Mini Mudder obstacle course where they got to scale 10 exciting obstacles such as the \u201cTunnel of Terror\u201d, \u201cCrazy Climb\u201d and the kid designed \u201cMonkey Swing\u201d.<\/p>\n

The children went round the course four times completing a full mile packed with exciting challenges! When they\u2019d finished they got given a branded headband keepsake and a well deserved Fruit Shoot Hydro.<\/p>\n

I love that Mini Mudder is un-timed so the focus is really on having fun, trying new things and working as a team with other children on the course. My children got so much out of the event, it gave them an immense sense of achievement and boosted their self esteem.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019ve got kids between the ages of 7 \u2013 12 who like to get muddy then this event is an absolute must! My kids are already asking when they can do it again! You can see all the Mini Mudder events scheduled and book your tickets here.<\/p>\n

While we were at Fruit Shoot Mini Mudder we had the honour of meeting and interviewing TV explorer Ed Stafford who was there to open the exciting event. I love his books \u201cWalking the Amazon\u201d<\/a> and \u201cNaked and Marooned\u201d<\/a>. He\u2019s a fantastic role model and my kids had the thrill of asking their hero 8 questions which we\u2019ve videoed for you below. Ed\u2019s answer to question 3 will turn your stomach and his reply to question 6 will melt your heart! What a guy!<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. What inspired you to walk the length of the Amazon?<\/li>\n
  2. Who was your hero growing up?<\/li>\n
  3. What\u2019s the most disgusting thing you\u2019ve ever had to eat?<\/li>\n
  4. If you had to choose one place to live that you\u2019ve been on on your expeditions where would it be and why?<\/li>\n
  5. Have you ever truly feared for your life?<\/li>\n
  6. If you could go back in time and do one thing differently, what would it be?<\/li>\n
  7. You\u2019ve had lots of different adventures but what was your first one?<\/li>\n
  8. Which one would you prefer, either having to go through your worst expedition again or having to do the Tough Mudder course 20 times in one day?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
