Laugh out loud moment this week... As we hike along we find so many amazing playscape that it can be difficult to choose where to camp out. We will often take votes, both for playscapes as well as paths to follow. As we ate lunch Wednesday, one budding politician decided to call a vote for playing by a stream we had passed. "Raise a stick if your vote is to play by the stream!" He then collected and handed out sticks to every available hand that would accept it. We did have a campaign and brave canidate for an alternative vote, but very few Forest Kids can turn down accepting a stick when offered one! Love adventuring with your kids!
