Spit Art

OK, as far as I'm concerned, here's one for the records:

the other day we were at the new house and the kids were getting a wee bit bored. It had gotten really hot and their clubhouse is right in the sun so they were trying to find something to do in the shade of the porch. No chalk, no bubbles, no toys of any kind....hmmmm....what is a kid to do? Well, they are usually pretty good at amusing themselves with rocks and sticks and dirt and bugs so I figured they would come up with something pretty quickly. I was sitting out on the porch with them but had gotten distracted by a phone call. the next thing I know, I hear them spitting...spit, spit, spit....laugh....spit, spit, spit.....laugh.....spit, spit....and so on. I hung up quickly as I was dying to find out what in the world they were up to. "What in the world are you guys doing?" I asked. "Spit Art!" They informed me giggling. "See. You spit on the sidewalk, then get some dirt and cover it up and then blow all the dirt away and see what kind of design is left behind."

Come on now, I know some of you are dying to go outside and try this right now... just make sure you have a child along with you-- you would look pretty funny doing spit art out on the sidewalk all by yourself :)

Remember when we were bored when we were little?...golfing with cow patties, creating the "exercise machines"...the legacy continues! I love those little munchkins!
