As the leaves began to collect on streets, sidewalks, and lawns around town, my kids started talking about wanting to jump in a leaf pile. Little did I know when we stopped for an impromptu play date at a park that Jack would find a way to do just that. He raked leaves up with his hands for a while, then decided to pile them up on his jacket and carry them to his pile. With the help of his family and some of the other kids at the park, he ended up with a decent jumping pile, and he absolutely loved it. Several other kids were able to join in the fun as well.
We may not have a big yard or a leaf-pile-producing tree, but Jack didn't let that stop him from enjoying this, one of the best things fall has to offer.
Reminds me of being little myself! Such fun.
