Pick-Up Sticks: Noodle Style

 Jack spilled an entire box of spaghetti noodles on the floor one day.  Don't ask me how or why he got them, because I don't have a satisfactory answer to either question.

 He then proceeded to place them back in the box one at a time.  For 20 minutes.  All by himself.  I thought it was hilarious, and it was great for him to have some down time without me. When I pulled out the camera Sara came to help, but for a while it was just him and he was perfectly content.

 It made me wonder why I had never thought of this before.

That was until I stepped on a broken noodle in the carpet with bare feet.  Ouchie.
