Oh the fun...

If necessity is the mother of invention, then little boys are the big brothers inventing fun out of just about anything. We have a new game in our house its called "Tato Jumping" it works like this.

First one stands in front of the sofa on our little ottoman


Then you jump...



Then the you lay there and laugh and laugh until you've recovered enough to do it again.

Playing the Tato Game often leads to a build up of static electricity which has also led to the invention of the very fun "Finger Shock" game.


In case you were wondering the "Tato" (pronounced tay-toe) is in fact not a large potato, but actually a big bean bag thing that just happens to be the same color and shape as the well known tubers.

Those pictures are awesome! My kids have been watching me play Mario a lot lately on the wii so they've started jumping around the house saying, "Boing boing boing" and jumping on top of each other. It's a sweet game too.

Wow! would my kids love that! I think we may have to take some of this tax return money and invest in a "tater" bag.
