Dirt, soil, it's all in how you look at it. Sometimes it's dirt, sometimes it's soil. Sometimes, it's a fashion accessory. Here, grandson Luke shows us how it's done.
We expect a kid to get dirty when he's wearing his rubber boots.
Kids who play in the dirt are sick less often and less sick when it does happen. My son had a friend with a helicopter mom, always spraying him with one disinfectant or another. That kid was always sick, and had the runniest nose of any mammal I've ever seen. He's 34 now and still like that.
Water hose in the back yard, he'll clean up nicely! :-)
