Zach taught Austin how to play hide-and-seek last week. It’s Austin’s favorite game now; he wants to play it every time we’re outside. Here’s how a typical game might go.
Austin: (while wriggling under the castle slide) Let’s play hide-and-seek!
Zach: Okay, but you’re supposed to wait to hide until I count. I can see you right now so that’s not hiding, that’s just being.
Austin: It’s okay if I hide here. Count to 10.
Zach: Okay. (closing eyes) 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8…
Austin: Daddy! You have to count by the tree!
Zach: (going over to the tree) 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10! Hmm, where could he be? (exaggerated searching around our small yard)
Austin: Here I am!
So, we’ll keep working on the rules. J

Let's hope he doesn't get TOO good at hiding too soon.
