Currently our boys have over 15 collections (I think), their interest changes from week to week.
Here is one that drives me CRAZY.
Air soft gun pellets. The ‘big boys’ of the neighborhood play games through all the neighbors yards with their guns. So in our soil we have thousands of these babies.
And they were one of the first collections the boys started. The collection currently resides inside of Trumans trike seat storage cubby.
Luckily for me, Truman whipes out once a week on his bike. He is always fine, but the pellets are mostly lost, so the collection starts afresh about weekly and somehow the collection continues to grow.
Even though they have been banned from the house, everyonce in awhile, they still make their way into the house.
That’s why I hate ’em.
But I love that the boys spend hours scavenging the neighborhood trying to find them, with all the other neighborhood children. Please no one tell them, they can buy a big container of pellets at the dollar store. That WOULD ruin their fun.

Oh my gosh, those things are the bane of my existence. Jared is one of those kids who like to shoot those. At lest he did, so my back yard is full to brimming with those darn things. If you ever bring your boys to Vegas again, maybe they can help me with some clean up. 🙂
