Playing in the Courtyard

Everyday about 4:00 kids head out to the courtyard to play. Most of the time they all ride bikes or scooters. Recently this odd shaped scooter showed up and it has been a hit. The front tire is flat, but they don't seem to mind. Everyone hops on then someone pushes.

Jacob loves to push.

Yesterday was a beautiful fall day. The kids had an idea to make a leaf mountain. The problem was we didn't have a rake. But with the help of a scooter and lots of little hands we gathered as many leaves as we could to make a pile.

After about an hour, the kids decided they wanted to move the leaf pile to the other side of the courtyard. Here is the leaf throwing party. Kiah had lots of leaves stuck in her hair.
