The Kindergarten prospector

I picked my son up from kinder and he walked out with half a grocery bag of dirt.
Usually it would be a painting or a beaut construction of cardboard boxes all taped together resembling a car or train.

I asked what was in the bag?
He replied " GOLD" with a big smile.

His kinder teacher then explained that he organised a group of kids all armed with mini metal hammers to dig in their dirt pit looking for some gold. He has watch the sluice being constructed, he calls the "SLUICER" and wants to run his bag through when it's ready for the test run adamant there is gold in that dirt.

Burbs of Melbourne !!

There probably is gold in the bag as he finds it the field !!

The upungun's sure got imagination GG. Most kids don't know what they want to do in life by 25, let alone 5

Seed his bag of dirt and watch that sandpit vanish and the teachers go nuts trying to control a school of mini-miners..

Yep, i agree with Ungy, seed some dirt and run it through at his kinder and watch those little eyes light up as the little specs are found
