Dirt under the nails.

This afternoon we wanted to go outside to play. OH my GOODness, the weather has been beautiful. It was getting close for the Littles to be picked up and head home. So, we reviewed about not digging in the dirt or playing in the mud. I asked them, "Are we going to play in the dirt or the mud?" shaking my head no as they ever so sweetly replied,

"No, Ms. Heather, we will not play in the dirt or the mud." So, we went outside.   They played and played and then they went to the playhouse and was "cooking" dinner. I saw them pick up dried grass and put in the playhouse and then they dug a little deeper into the dried grass, which was of course, DIRT.... They dug up the dirt for "dinner". I watched them to make sure there was no throwing of the dirt or grass. The Littles decided then, that the dirt "dinner" was much more fun to play with going down the little slide. Anyways, no we did not stay out of the dirt but the dirt provided a lot of fun and dirty hands and a little dirt under the nails.

Have a great weekend and keep those little hands dirty.
