Despite looming black clouds we headed to the park to have a little play, stretch our legs and take the dog for a walk. The wet sand was perfect for digging in and sculpting into buildings. Before long the three of them had organized themselves into a building crew. They were building an Eygptian city, complete with pyramids, the Nile, temples, crops, beehives, roads and statues. They talked among themselves about where the crops should go, that the houses needed to be a short distance from the Nile so that when it flooded they weren't ruined, and what they would put in their tomb with them if they could choose. It is amazing what they learn in the sandbox.
