Sidewalk Art and Hopscotch

Last Sunday while picking up my Realtor Open House signs I saw this beautiful sidewalk chalk drawing! Now this took someone a long time!

This also jogged my memory of Hopscotch. Remember the fun game that only needed a piece of chalk and a hot summer day? We were easily amused in those days!

Hopscotch provided hours of fun!

This was a game we played on the play ground at elementary school before the summer vacation and all summer long. I remember drawing the hopscotch grid and rounding up the girls in the neighborhood.

This game kept us amused for hours & cost absolutely nothing. The worst that could happen was you fell over your own feet & went home with a grazed knee!  It was definitely more suited to girls, with a bit of practice we got really proficient & hopped along our grids like little bunnies.
