THRIVING THURSDAY

It is time to ponder with Brenda again. She takes a word with multiple meanings in which to ponder. Today’s word is

RECESS

This word came to me as I watched the children go back to school in September. I also had a discussion with my granddaughter E about what to do at recess. This was her first year and it was a totally new experience for her. In her school she was not able to use the playground equipment and they had to stay in the field behind the school. With some brain storming we came up with balls, frisbees and the origami game. Unfortunately I suggested skipping ropes, however the school board rejected that idea because it could be a choking hazard. Did you ever hear of anyone choking on a skipping rope? It was our biggest activity when I went to school.

I am also a big fan of HGTV. I watch a lot of the renovation shows and recessed lighting is very popular.

Can you think of other recesses? If you can come ponder with us.

We did enjoy skipping ropes during the recess in elementary school.
My recent post Pondering on the Word 'Recess'
Skipping rope is a neccesity in all girls' recess days.
The things the school has abolished are ridiculous!

Thanks for pondering with me
My recent post Recess anyone?
Do you ever wonder how we survived growing up with all those "dangerous" things they take away from today's kids?
