The kids and I played a little game yesterday. (It's actually one of the practical exercises from
this little book
.) It kept them entertained for about an hour and only resulted in half the beans being spread all over the kitchen floor. (At least they were very easy to sweep up.) It turns out they both need some practice pouring, though I think it'll be a little easier next time when I let them use rice, which is suggested in the book. (We didn't even have one grain left before our trip to the grocery store last night.) Once they master the rice, we'll move up to water in a little pitcher. Then...one fine day, they'll pour themselve a glass of water from the fridge.
