Summer Boredom Busters?

Call it what you want (I call it entertainment), but Alex and Ayson spent about a half hour with the following activities (which means a half hour of not fighting/arguing!) two days this week! 
Who knew that sharpening pencils could be so much fun? I found two pencil sharpeners in my desk drawer and gave them to the boys not knowing it would send them on a pencil-sharpening rampage.  They spent a half hour sharpening about 25 new pencils.  Their productivity was breathtaking. Wow! If I'd only known how easy to please they were! :)
This morning the boys were entertained by a small toad they had caught and temporarily caged.  They petted it, watched it pee in the cage, named it and just sat there watching it.  Good stuff, nature.
