The Elementary School Playground

To play properly in any school sandbox you must first add a good deal of water to the sand and mix thoroughly. Do not over mix as the water will begin to seep further into the sand and not be available for step two.



Step two requires that you abandon the shovel and use your hands. Sand is a great cleansing agent and rubs all that dead skin right off, leaving your hands soft and warm to the touch, though a bit grimy.



Besides the sandbox I've discovered that it's easy to circumvent the restrictions imposed by authority. Here I simply raise the "Caution: Do Not Cross" tape and run across what appears to be a perfectly fine rope and wood bridge.



See, it works in both directions. Very handy trick to know.
