Outside the Box

Creative play is like a spring that bubbles up from deep within a child (or a puppy).

—Joan Alman

Lil’ Toot here. I have discovered the most Interesting Toys. Of course, there are Puppy Toys Mom has picked Up for Me. And Delightful Squeaky Toys Other Friends have gifted Me. I even have Some to help Me chew on Appropriate Things. (I began to chomp on a delectable Corner in the Bathroom. Mom put Tabasco sauce on it. No more!) Living unstuck.

The most creative Item I have found so far? Mom’s long johns. We had a cold snap, and Mom pulled on Her stretchy undergarments. I latched onto the Leg of one. When I pulled, Mom laughed. And laughed again. She finally caught up with Me, and I let go. She now dresses in the Laundry Room with the door closed. No fun in that. Living unstuck.

I wonder: Are Your Toys creative and Mind-stretching? Or is Your toy Box empty? I say: I’ve heard Santa is coming soon. And He brings Goodies to Good Girls and Boys. There’s still time to be on Your Best Behavior. Living unstuck. #unstuck-living#creativity
