The kids had great fun with it. For a while. Turns out the old saw is true: "It's all fun and games until somebody gets hurt." But even so, I think Alexander (the one who got hurt) would say it was worth it. It should be noted that the injury happened when they deviated from acceptable Sumo maneuvers and decided to run their pillow bellies together at top speed. Xander being the lighter of the two, went flying backwards into the wall.
So they got a little Physics lesson too. Ah, homeschooling!

That must have been fun to watch! lol! How cute
Oh, we have to try that one! It hasn't been more than two weeks since we talked about Japan in Story of the World over here, and I KNOW my 9 and 6 year old would have fun with this. The risk level will be way under the time they tried to play parachutes down half a flight of stairs ;)
I found your blog a little while ago and really enjoy it. ( I'm a Quaker and a homeschooling mom to kids 9,6, and 4 in Minnesota.)
Hi Stephanie,
I'm new to reading your blog and love this entry. We are Q hsers too and just happen to be listening the Story of the World 3 as well! My girls would feel cheated if I showed them this great photo. LOL Glad to see you have fun with it.
Would you mind if I linked your blog to mine since we are home schoolers? Up to you.....
Blessings to your family.
Thanks so much Stephanie!
