When I'm home, my niece and nephew come to my house to play at least once a week. Since I don't have toys around to keep them entertained I have to get creative. On the last trip we started in a cabinet, climbing in and out entertained them for a while.
Luckily it hadn't snowed yet, so we headed outside. Who really need fancy things like swings or trampolines when you have a wet, muddy hill the kids can slide down. They had a great time and I only sent them home to their mom slightly muddy.
Isn't being an aunt perfect - you can muddy them up and send them home with their parents to be cleaned up. One final picture - just couldn't resist another look at this face.
I was listening to this song today and can't help but think maybe we'd all be better off if we could cling to the simple innocence of childhood. Want to hear more music? Check out my post today at the i-Studio here's the LINK

Kids like non-toys things better anyways. It looks like they had a great time!
I like the carpet in your bathroom, much easier to clean! :)

it's great you do all these things with them, what a nice aunt. I have carpet in the bathroom (very English!)
i love your niece's face in that first shot!
Yes it is fun muddying them up and sending them home to be cleaned....being an Aunty is like being a Grandma; so fun. They are so lucky to have you back...the times you spend with them will be forever in their hearts.
Good exercise in creativity..learning to play without toys. Wonderful images..and wonderful accompanying music - as always!
