Monday night we hauled dozens of costume pieces downstairs to use with the kids during our normal “movie time.” A few of them went straight to work, writing scripts all night long – even while the rest of the kids were running in circles on the playground. (Or, looking at tractors across the parking lot, in the case of the little boys.)
Pretty hilarious. Script writing is, apparently, a very loud boisterous process that involves randomly bursting out into various – completely unrelated – songs, just because one can.
And, when you’re outside… anything more or less flat becomes a desk. :)
The better part of thirty minutes was probably spent trying on various outfits and chasing each other around with pirate swords. The mess was impressive, but well worth it, as the parents walked in to find their kids, not watching a movie and whining that they didn’t want to go home, but on stage, loving the mic that we had turned on for them and performing their “plays.”
And, the leaders were loving the fact that they could sit with a few of the littles and eat snack while the rest of the kids kept themselves entertained!
