Another great book for boys that my son and I found is Bart King’s The Big Book of Boy Stuff. Tons of fun activities, experiments, jokes, info on gross stuff like barfing and burping. My son has about worn his copy out!

I picked this book up at B&N on a visit to my sisters in CT. My son is turning 6 in September so he’s not ready for it yet, BUT…..

Here’s comes 7…maybe 8.

This thing is better than my old Boy Scout handbook, by a long sight and I read that scout handbook cover to cover at least 100 times!

“and fill up plastic lighter fluid containers with gasoline and kick them across the yard to leave an impossible-to-cover track of scorched earth in the backyard”

Don’t forget about digging holes around the base of a tree under the roots and filling it with gasoline then lighting it. Thank God wood isn’t flammable! That was one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen. A 15 foot stream of fire, and a shoe on fire, good times, good times. At least the turkey burgers didn’t get burned!

Of course maybe roof wrestling wasn’t all that smart either.

Once again, I think I’ve just been frightened away from the thought of ever having children.
