Evidence of fun

Today I will save my explanations about why "fun" is good for children and assume that we're all in agreement that children's receptivity to learning is heightened during play.


I enjoy finding "evidence" of children's fun. 

 Color

 Probable unrestricted use of paint

 Child-initiated clean up station

Sand splatters (e.g. from overflowing food) 

Self-serve water

Kids using containers meant for adult use

Sand toys being used as stylish apparel 

Have a fun week!
