Baseball Cards, Football Cards, Basketball Cards

So, Atticus and some of our neighborhood boys are really into sports cards of all kinds. Well, this one particular day was just one of my favorite days to watch them! They were trading and then decided they wanted to setup a table for people to buy or trade their cards in our neighborhood. Atticus took a card table and a made a sign and they traded and sold and it was so fun! They were out there all afternoon. I went out and they tried to sell me all kinds of things for lots of money! They definitely didn't know the value of their own cards - which was pretty low. They had one neighbor actually buy some and then mostly, they traded with each other or sold to each other. Atticus was an easy sell, I'm afraid, but he had so much fun. In this world where all you hear is how terrible kids are these days because they are addicted to screen time, it is nice to know that our kids are not and that they know how to play and know how to get along with kids and have fun. Technology and screen time are just going to be part of things in their lifetimes, but watching them just be kids too is so satisfying.
