Child’s Play
Remembering the great outdoors. Simple but comprehensive immigration solutions. Fun, fun, fun 'til daddy takes the Camaro away. Plus much more.

Kids’ fun in the sun hasn’t been eradicated completely. I watched two of my grandchildren after school yesterday — Cailin, who’s 11 and almost taller than I am (which isn’t difficult), and Hunter, who’s almost 6. Although both cousins have all the electronic accoutrements of modern childhood, they couldn’t wait to get outside to play dragon and princess. They were still outside at 9 o’clock playing ball when I decided that it was time to come inside. I’ve talked to my grandchildren about my childhood (born in 1950) when no one wore helmets to ride bikes, and we lived to tell the tales. They can’t imagine having just one channel on TV and no computers. McDonald’s wasn’t around, either. Records? What are those? And just try to explain the telephone party line system to kids who have been raised with cell phones.
