Oh to be five again and eat ice cream while running around play areas! Having a five year old is just like being five again myself!
This afternoon I was able to pick my son up from daycare and decided to take him to the dreaded “M” for dinner. He’s a good boy and earned the outing. So we headed off to the restaurant – had a nice quick meal and then headed into the play area.
I have to admit it’s too much fun watching five year olds play together. The bunch that were there tonight were really nice and despite running around like little mad men no one got hurt! In fact they had a lot of fun together. The best part – watching some of them try new things they’d never done before and how excited and proud of themselves after having done it. Priceless.
The bottom line is I love spending time with my son and other kids too. They are so much fun and it simply reminds me of when I was a kid.
If you’ve got kids – I recommend you spend as much time with them as you can. They grow up so fast unless you pay attention you’ll miss it all.
