The Things You Learn at Educational Events

Today Miss Dance had to perform at one of those kids' festival days at the mall where all the local agencies pass out free pens and information and whatnot. The Bananalets always like going to bring home a candy stash and see what's shaking. 


At one booth, before you could pick a piece of candy from the dish, you were supposed to write on their huge sheet of poster paper a "Way to Conserve Water."


(We were the first ones to write on it. I would have taken a photo, truly I would, but I was having too much trouble trying not to roll on the floor in laughter. I even went back later in the day to get a photo but the whole display was gone. I suspect they could not take it any more.)


Mr Music was first. He wrote, "Don't take showers."

and then Miss Dog Lover added her contribution, "Drink it."


Somehow I feel these two homeschooled children totally missed the point of this display. But the nice college girl at the booth smiled, told them both, "good idea" and let them choose a candy.

  1. Thanks for the link. I'm sure I prefer Miss Dog Lover's contribution but one or two here like Mr Music's.

  2. I need to ask my Denims what they might suggest. LOL They already know not to keep the water running in the sink, thanks to the Professor's persistent nagging... I mean reminding.
