5 kids and a back yard

I played a combination of tag and hide-and-seekwith the four grandchildren yesterday. Despite the wide age ranges (6 - 61) the children played well together for an hour with nothing more than their imaginations, a backyard, and an almost-raining summer evening to draw upon. No fights, lot of laughter, lots of meaningless running in circles. Just perfect! Some things don't change . . . well, not exactly. When one of the adults arrived to call us in, I didn't complain. I was pooped!
