Sawdust Burgers...

My children have vivid imaginations...give them an empty bucket, an old skate board, a couple water bottles and a couple handfuls of sawdust...and they can make you a plate of lovely burgers!
James 2nd Birthday is coming up super fast...and we really have no idea what to get for the boy! You see, he rarely plays with toys...he has such a great imagination that he plays much longer and more contentedly with silly things like sawdust and water...but a box of sawdust is hardly an amazing birthday gift!
I love watching the kids find creative and everyday elements to play with. Ever since Elsie was a baby we have been a rather anti-toy family...our kids certainly have toys, but we do limit them and keep some packed away if too many are brought out! I would much rather find them playing with everyday things than plastic toys with far too many buttons and lights!
The kids played together for quite some time...then James wondered off to play with the water spigot...and Elsie happily finished the sawdust burgers by herself...
