beans...not just a magical fruit...


why are there beans on my floor? in our home beans are magical not only because they make us toot but because they let my boy have fun without getting crazy messy. i usually just let him play however he wants, outside the box, half-ways in half-way out of the box, and in the box. the latter results in a stray bean or two down the pants. but it is a relatively clean way to have fun indoors and it's easy to clean up (and we do have our share of bean messes!).  today he decided to use the designated measuring cups and an addition of his own... a dvd case. he filled it up and dumped it out, and then was surprised when it wouldn't shut. a few beans where still hiding. he found them, took them out and closed the case. he makes me smile when his little mind figures things out.








"cheese!"
he found his own toy
