Three Little Paleontologist

The boys were playing outside and I was in the house cleaning up the kitchen. They came running in and declared that they were paleontologists and had just found a dinosaur bone. They were so excited. I went to look and sure enough they had dug a big hole and hit something large and white. I didn't have the heart to tell them that around here when you dig a couple of inches you'll hit rock. Let them believe that they really found a dinosaur bone. There's no harm in that right? Well...apparently finding one at home means that there's probably one on the playground at school and if you're smart you can get all friends in on digging one up; even if it means destroying the school grounds. Okay, maybe not such a great idea.
Every paleontologist needs a popsicle after a dinosaur dig!
