You know you are a kid when...

  • Your favorite ring is made from a bread tie.
  • You put on more tape to cover the crack in your bat.
  • You know where the dog hides its bones.
  • You know which tree is the best climbing tree.
  • You know where Dad hides his Playboys.
  • It's OK for Andy to sleep on top of Raggedy Ann.
  • You have your Grandpa's bank bag for your marbles.
  • You can go "around the world" with your yo-yo.
  • You can't pedal and sit on the seat at the same time.
  • You know when your dad gets home without having a watch.
  • The dog kisses are still nice to get.
  • Your big brother has to haul the trash.
  • And best of all, knowing that being a kid is all you really want to be!!

LIVE LIFE LIKE A KID...

  • Sleep in a teepee
  • Build a little church
  • Ride a small train
  • Run through the spray
  • Make loud music
  • Carve a totem pole
  • Play with racecars
  • Play with the dog
  • Whittle on sticks
  • Dress in a funny costume
  • Take a hot bubble bath
  • And make pretty pictures

See life through a kid's eyes...

run, chase, climb,
sing, dance, explore,
ask questions, jump, tumble,
take naps,
play with your food,
and love everything.

Learning something new is like the fishing game at the fair. There is a prize at the end of every string.

When learning, every string has a lesson and the more strings you pull, the more that can be learned.

Just remember that you can't pull the last string until all the others have been pulled.
