Sand in their shorts

How do you keep a couple of toddlers busy at the fountain when the morning turns out to be too cold to play in the water?

Give them a few cups and permission to disassemble the rear corner of a nearby brick amphitheater.

I just can't seem to get away from the simple truth that life is more fun when we're making a mess. Any activity that holds a kid's undivided attention for over an hour and a half is definitely worth repeating. I officially revoke every negative thing I've ever said about owning a sandbox. I now have a fuller understanding of the value of adding one to my backyard.
