Teaching Links of the Day:
From little band-aid kits and computer screen cleaners to coloring books and iron-on coloring sheets, a seat in an excavator to a seat in a cop car, a dog suit to a talking fire engine, and electrocuted hot-dogs to a tornado in a bottle, this was a fantastic way to spend an afternoon with my 5- and 7-year-olds and their 8- and 13-year old cousins. The stack of coloring books will keep them occupied for many days to come, and will also encourage continuing discussion of the safety tips and warnings we learned while we were there.
Two things topped the list of terrifying for me, the adult:
1) Stay out of large vessels of grains. You will suffocate, and struggling will only pull you in deeper, and no one is strong enough to pull you out.
2) The "don't talk to strangers" guy was horrifyingly creepy. I suspect he will crop up in my nightmares.
