Challenge 31: Get Hopping!
There’s nothing to get you moving like a good, old-fashioned game of hopscotch! Grab some chalk, find a sidewalk and a stone and you’re in business. Create a grid from one to ten. Toss your stone onto the number one and then hop over it. On one foot, hop up the grid and back again. Repeat for each number, but if you don’t get your stone on the right square, or you lose your balance, you go back to square one – literally!

Booger’s Veggie Experiment
Hey – it’s me, Booger again. Okay, so I know that I tried that broccoli the other day and it wasn’t bad with the cheese sauce on it. But now Goober has been bugging me to try more vegetables and I just know that they’re going to be totally gross. So Goober had the idea that I could approach it like a science experiment. So I’m going to measure my response to various samples in order to prove my hypothesis that all vegetables are disgusting. HYPOTHESIS: Vegetables are gross. Period. (except broccoli with cheese sauce on it) MATERIALS: raw carrot sticks; celery sticks; sliced cucumber; broccoli and cauliflower stalks; sliced red peppers; onion dip. METHODS: 1. Dip each vegetable into onion dip and taste. 2. IF subject survives step one, taste each vegetable WITHOUT onion dip. DATA: Track response to each vegetable on a scale of one to five with one being ‘revolting’ and five being ‘delicious’. Figure 1. WITH DIP Vegetable revolting kinda gross Not bad Pretty good Delicious Carrot X Celery X Cucumber X Broccoli X Cauliflower X … Read more
Booger’s Big Walk?
Um… it’s Polly here and you are not going to believe what I just saw. I’m not sure I believe it myself! I was hanging out in the park, swinging on a tire swing, when I looked up and saw Booger strolling through the park. At first I thought my eyes must be deceiving me because Booger never walks anywhere. He barely leaves his house except to go to school. So I did a double take and sure enough, – it WAS Booger. I figured he must have found a short cut through the park to the arcade or the ice cream shop or something. So I called over and said hi and asked him where he was going. And he told me… he was going for a walk. I was certain I must have heard him wrong so I asked where he was walking to. And then he said he was JUST going for a walk. HUH???? Okay – now I’m worried. I’m pretty sure that aliens have invaded Kinzville and taken over Booger’s body. There can’t be any other logical explanation, can there?
