Here’s a cool magic trick for when your child is bored!
Take some milk in a pan, add some drops of food color (different colors) at the side of the pan and then squirt in a couple of drops of dishwashing liquid in the center.
Enjoy!

A hotel in Scotland reports that the weirdest thing that guests left behind this year was a 4 year old boy. Apparently, the boy’s parents had a family party to attend, and were completely flustered on their way out of the hotel. When they realized they were missing their flesh and blood, they turned right around in panic and back to the hotel room where they found their son - still playing with his toys, and none the wiser (which is a good thing.)
I refuse to go tsk tsk here. Just yesterday, we went on a family picnic to a nearby wildlife park with my husband’s entire family. There were 4 cars and every time we stopped for a toilet break, the kids would change cars. When we left at around 6 pm, it was getting pretty dark, and in all the flurry of getting back, I began to panic that my son wasn’t in any of the cars. A couple of high decibel hysteria packed minutes later, we got out, took a roll call, found my son in one of the other cars, and were then on our way. Happy ending, thankfully!
I don’t find it strange that they had a momentary attack of amnesia where their son was concerned - it happens to the best of us. What I found weird was that they didn’t realize he was missing even when they were in their car, and starting off!
Back to the story, and what other things have people been leaving behind in hotel rooms? I love this one - an urn full of ashes.
I am guessing someone didn’t want her mother in law sitting on her mantle.
