Brooms and sticks and… well, whatever
The other day I was in my boss’s office waiting on something to print. He has a bookshelf full of books right there, so I pulled one down on How to Entertain Yourself with Everyday Things. It looked generally like a kid’s book, or rather, things you could do in your home. Well, it was absolutely hilarious. I took a picture of my favorite page: Broom sticks and mop handles can be adapted for many uses.
Awesome, I’m thinking. Like to hit a wadded up piece of paper like you’re playing baseball or something. But NO. They had BIGGER ideas.
In case you can’t read that, you can go ahead and cut off the broom part (which I’m sure Mom would love you wrecking her broom and Dad would love you wielding his saw), and then jump over the stick! Wooo-hooo!!! Fun for hours! And if that wasn’t enough, you can go ahead and BANG THEM TOGETHER! Like you’re in a band!!

That is SO awesome. I would love to read that book!
my mom, your grandmother, always used to say “small things amuse small minds”. I think those kids have too much time on their hands. It sure made me laugh though.
