2 Things NOT To Do On An Airplane

1) If your daughter (or son) is playing her Nintendo DS Mario Bros. game, DO NOT yell out, "Kill the bomb!" on an airplane. Nothing bad happened to me, except I freaked out Scott, but the potential was there. I thought nothing of it at the time. She's playing a game, for goodness sakes. But, really, it's not a good thing to yell on a plane.

2) Do not let your kids play with Glitter Lava. It's kinda like Silly Putty and kinda like Play-Doh. It's oozie, it's stretchable, and it has glitter in it. Perfect to keep the girls occupied on our flight- so I thought. Once again, husband pointed out that playing with gel on an airplane isn't a good idea. Point taken, especially since I had already yelled Bomb (see #1).

*An opinion about Glitter Lava. DO NOT BUY IT. It does not come out of clothes. It's a great toy if you're going to let the kiddos run around, outside, naked, but other than that, it's a no go.
