Time, stress, responsiblity, and the news turn all, (well most) of us into adults at some point. That’s not all bad, but it is partly bad, so take back a bit of the joy of being a kid by:

• Sing into your hairbrush.
• Grow a milk mustache.
• Read the funnies–throw the rest of the paper away.
• Dunk your cookies.
• Open a pack of cupcakes and give one to a friend even though you wanted both of them for yourself.
• Step carefully over sidewalk cracks.
• Change into some play clothes.
• Try to get someone to trade you a better sandwich.
• Have a staring contest with your cat.
• Eat ice cream for breakfast.
• Blow the wrapper off a straw.
• Refuse to eat crusts.
• Make a face the next time somebody tells you “no.”
• Watch TV in your pajamas.
• Ask “Why?” a lot.
• Have someone read you a story.
• Eat dessert first.
• Sneak some frosting off a cake.
• Stay up past your bedtime.
• Whatever you’re doing, stop once in a while for recess.
• Make a “slurpy” sound with your straw when you get to the bottom of a milkshake.
• Play a song you like really loud, over and over.
• Find some pretty stones and save them.
• Make cool screeching noises every time you turn a corner.
• Take a running jump over a big puddle.
• Eat dinner at the coffee table.
• Giggle a lot for no real reason.
