Woodchips = Great snack!

We took the kids to the park again today, this is quickly becoming one of our favorite spots!  Tristan of course was off like a lightening bolt when we got there, barely taking time to park his bike!  While he headed for new friends he was going to meet, the 3 of us headed for the swings.  Trinity loves the swings and they are really good for her to work on her core strength.

Today for some reason she decided that eating and licking the swing were more important than mommies pleas that she stop.  Since we could not get her to stop out she came!  Hey, she is old enough to start learning NO and STOP too!..:)

I put her in the wood chips, which was a new experience for her.  She LOVED picking up the wood chips and feeling the textures.

She also really enjoyed the texture of the dirt on her feet and rubbed and rubbed!

As she was playing so sweetly in the dirt and wood chips someone walked by and said hello to us, I took my eyes off her for one second to say hello back and when I turned back to her I saw all these wood chips on her dress up around her face....

and then I noticed her chewing as hard as she could.  The telltale sign of all the dirt around her mouth also gave her away!

Still, after cleaning out her mouth she went right back to playing and having a good time.  It was a great sensory exercise for her and she didn't even know it!
