Secret Holiday Gourd
Toy and decoration all in one
ADDED November 19, 2008
Most houses around
Thanksgiving have those little holiday gourds for decoration. They are festive,
but really serve no purpose beyond that.
But we have figured out a way to make them festive and fun all at the
same time.
When your significant
other is looking the other way, sneak a few of the festive
gourds to your kids along with a Sharpie and instruct them to draw a face on
one side of the gourd. Then play
with the gourds, give them names, have them go on adventures -- they can even
help walk the dog.
But remember, make sure all
the secret gourd toys are
put away and everything is back to normal before your significant other
notices! (You could also save this activity for a few weeks, and
spring it when your lovely spouse is ready to do away with the gourds.)
