Old Fashioned Fun

It just warms my heart when CJ and his friends find ways to have fun without a TV, Video Games or organized activities.

A couple of nights ago he was helping Steve in the garage when a friend stopped by. CJ and Douglas borrowed the air compressor hose and used it to shoot airsoft pellets, shoot a dowel rod, and blow up and I do mean blow up balloons(they are boys after all). Then one of the boys would blow bubbles and the other would spray the air hose at them to disperse them all over. It was quite a night.

Today it's a baking soda and vinegar day. When asked where this explosive fun was going to take place, the neighbor boy quickly answered "outside". Good Answer. (Eleanor did you ever find out why there was a stain on the ceiling above the kitchen sink?) There are 5 kids in the driveway squealing each time they shoot a water bottle high into the air! Okay that one went higher than the house!!!

There is fun without 'technology'.
