Dirt, Sticks, & Water

3 / 8 / 133 / 11 / 13

IMG 6428IMG 6424IMG 6417IMG 6427We woke up to an absolutely gorgeous sunny day today and immediately packed up a lunch and headed down to our favourite beach-front playground.  As always, Grae spent tons of time climbing ladders, sliding through tunnels, riding the swings, and spinning on the merry-go-round, but during this visit, she spent just as much time climbing on and off this log, adding bits and pieces, and tending to her delicious-looking mud soup.

It makes my heart happy that dirt, sticks, and water can still inspire just as much play as it did when I was little.

The Simple Things

7 / 5 / 127 / 7 / 12

I’m ashamed to say that this is what our yard looks like right now. The garden beds are badly overgrown and the grass could better be described as a clover field. Inexcusable, really, but I blame it on the fact that we’ve been on vacation. Must rectify the situation asap.

With that out of the way, is there anything more wonderful than the joy bubbles bring?
IMG 6273IMG 6277IMG 6280IMG 6281I don’t think so. Well, not many, at least. I just love watching little ones squeal with delight as they chase bubbles floating in the wind. Such a simple, simple thing, yet it brings so much excitement.

That being said, why is it that we saw {young} children with electronics at Jericho today? Since when did iPads and handheld gaming devices become beach toys? And when did bubbles and buckets and seashells become not enough? Please say it isn’t so.
