Kade's requests

Kade is usually the one who wants the most action in his play at this stage of our lives. Today he came up to me and asked for 10 pieces of paper. I ask if we can use 5 and then cut those in half. "Sure!" So on the half pieces of paper he writes big numbers, one on each page. The next dialog goes like this:

KADE: Ok. Are you ready to play?
ME: What's the game?
KADE: It's a number hiding game.
ME: What are we supposed to do?
KADE: One of us hides these numbers around the house. The other one has to go find them.
ME: Who hides them first?
KADE: Me, of course.
ME: Go hide them!

We played this game for about 2 hours!!! The hiding places started out as really open and not hidden at all. As we played, though, the hiding places got more challenging to find. We had to make a new rule that said the pages had to have at least part of them visible. It was a blast.

After the game, I sat and knitted for a touch. Kade came over and asked if we could make another video of his newest Lego mini cons. So...here it is!
