chalk on the sidewalk

chalk on the sidewalk.. Once the sun finally came out today, the boys and I set out to play with chalk on the sidewalk. Everyone loves to do the ol' body trace with chalk, right? Well, each boys laid down on the sidewalk and stretched his body out as big as it could get. I traced around arms, legs, feet, and head. The shape pretty much resembled their size.So, what's a 3 year old boy to do but start drawing the body parts! Chris started with a belly button in the form of a round O right in the middle of his chest area. Then he exclaimed "I need to draw my penis!" Before I could remind him that it is his private part, and not to draw one where everyone can see, he drew a proportionate line right where it needed to go. His chalk body had a penis. "I have a penis!" he shouted once again. So proud, so happy.Nate was heading over to draw one for himself on his chalk guy, but I was able to interject before he drew 'the line'. Instead, mama drew some underwear on his chalk body. Keeping those privates private. :)I saw some people walking while we were eating dinner tonight. I doubt they even noticed the fine details on our chalk bodies. 3 year old boys are so much fun.
