Age Appropriate


Where am I?  When I was a kid, I loved jumping into a bin full of multi-colored balls, it was really one of my favorite things to do.  I finally had the chance to dive in yesterday when I took my kids to a cool playroom. Overall I think they get over it, you cannot spend too long there, and if you have multiple kids then the price is quite reasonable.  


So my baby was such a daredevil, do you see that tunnel slide?  My kids climbed up, and he followed them with no hesitation all the way to the top, I didn't have my camera when he was doing it, but notice the black stairs, it is quite high up and curvy, I was soooo impressed. There was another slide, you can see the one on the far right, that one you also had to climb some high stairs, and you slid into a very deep tub of balls, I felt I had no choice but to do it with the baby, and I just let myself sink in - yay.

We met some friends there, and it was a good place to spend the day out of the heat.  It is interesting to me what is age appropriate for who. We went to a place with all kind of rides the other day and there were age limits and height limits.  I understand it is all for safety, but each kids is so different, some always hesitant, some ready to go, and how about big kids like me?

I love when kids and adults are allowed to just be themselves.  Of course there are certain places in life where we all have to respect the environment, dress codes, rules, etc.  I feel blessed that I am really in touch with the real me, and I am happy that my kids are able to be just themselves in our home and in school.  So this morning when I noticed that the blinds and sun had created an image of a fish on our wall, I had to go grab my camera, enjoy the silly, happy, childlike, deep pleasures of life.
