Uncovering fun...




The warm weekend enticed my boys outside to do some exploring. I was pleasantly surprised that in this crazy world of video games, all kid channel tv, expensive toys, etc., my guys entertained themselves practically all day Saturday just with what nature gave them in the backyard. A few earthworms, some pinecones, sticks, rocks, and some space to run around kept them happy for hours. They even got their cousin to touch a worm! Oh, and don't worry, no worms were harmed in this process. Just a little boy trying to give his mom a heart attack by threatening to eat a worm!

Kids don't need toys--just rocks, dirt, and worms. Remember the old poem:
But oh, it makes my mother squirm,
Because she thinks I ATE that worm.
