Professional ball players we are not

Addie and I have been wrapping some Christmas presents and as we finish up rolls of paper, there are cool cardboard cores to play with. One of the games we have been enjoying is T-ball. At first I laid on the ground and held the one tube down while Addie swung. Although she does not have a strong swing, it did not take me long to realize that I wanted to be not quite so close to the action. So we wedged it in a bucket of blocks and voila! we had a T-ball stand. The ball is soft & squisky & usually does not travel more than 1-2 feet so I have no worries about things getting broken.

I tried playing "swords" with her as well, but she was not very into it. That is just fine with me :)
