[blparent] Playing catch with my daughter Violet

[Robert Shelton]

Something I did with my kids was play frisby.  The trick is to stand on a
hard surface like a patio or driveway.  The frisby will slide a good ways on
the concrete and that produces a nice signal you can track.  Better yet,
back up to a wall or corner which will act as a backstop to limit the range
of where the frisby can go.

When the boys got older, we played frisby golf.  I'd have one of them tap
the target so I could aim at the sound.  It was a whole lot of fun.

Lol, that is too cute! And since you're playing with a loaf of bread,
there's less chance of breaking something. *grins*

I'm curious about something, mostly for when Kahlan is old enough to play
catch. She's fully sighted. Her friends might ask how she can play catch
with her parents if they can't see. What do you guys think of balls with
bells or beepers in them? Personally, I don't like them and would prefer not
to use them, especially the beepers. The beepers fall out too easily, and
the auditory signal somehow takes away the fun of it for me. Sorry if this
is off topic; it was just something that popped into my head when Gabe said
he and his daughter were playing catch.
