Do you remember these things?

Again I say--

Creativity can be dangerous.

Do you remember Jell-o Beans?  They were big about the last year that Jell-o sold the egg molds, golly, probably 12 or 15 years ago now. 

They’re a pain in the pattooty to get out, but they were kinda fun.

This generation, however, they are for Piper’s fine motor practice.  The cells are just the right size for a puffy and teeny tiny fingers to get them out.

I can put half a dozen puffs in different holes (so she has to look for them), and it’ll keep her entertained for quite a while.

Sometimes she’s willing to play the “game” nicely.  Other times, however, her patience is significantly less than it usually is.

Lack of patience often leads to solutions.  She figured out a better way to remove puffs from holes.

We won’t call it “laziness”, we’ll call it creative problem solving. 

Stinker.
