Please teach your children that it is not ok to throw sand in other children's faces. Thank you.
Adam was having a grand old time at the park today until some brat threw sand in his face! I didn't exactly see it happen because Adam had just walked into a little fort/hiding place but I saw sand flying out of the entrance he'd just gone in and a boy about 3 years old walk out the other side. Adam came walking out rubbing his eyes so I went over to him and he was covered in sand! Hair, face, clothes....everything. He didn't cry but I could see he had a bunch of sand in his eyes so I laid him across my lap and used my water to try and wipe his eyes a little. We packed up, went home, and I gave him a bath to wash away all the sand that was stuck to his sunscreened face and hair. I made the mistake of saying, "Let's get out of the bath and go have lunch" because he was not happy that I was lotioning him up and getting him dressed instead of feeding him. Because he was upset, he was crying....sand! At least he got it all out of his eyes!
I wouldn't mind so much if he got sand in his own eyes from throwing it around, but some bigger kid throwing it directly in his face? So not cool.
