Steering Through the Store!

Ya’ know what is so great about KIDFUN? It’s simple. It’s that easy little idea that changes a potentially frustrating moment into minutes of fun. And, Greg Blumenthal shared the perfect example of this.

This daddy of two-year old twins, Madison and Gabriel, tried a diversion tactic when he and his wife were shopping in Home Depot. We all know that moment when the kids have had enough, right? Well, Greg steered away from the serious shopping, letting his wife take care of it, and the shopping cart turned into a ship on the high seas, whizzing down the aisles while Greg the Pirate was taking over! The kids laughed, they all had fun and Mommy had a chance to seriously shop.

It all seems so obvious but maybe Greg’s adventure should be a reminder to us all that when we use our imaginations, we can make our own little magic!

Remember, we’d love KIDFUN to be an idea exchange! Share yours, too! And, thanks Greg! Here’s Quacking to you! (I had to add this — Greg is the general manager of Philadelphia’s Ride The Ducks, the fun-filled amphibious sightseeing tour. No wonder he thought a shopping cart could become a boat … his vehicles become boats daily!)
