A paean to play from an award-winning poet and a New York Times best-selling illustrator. The trappings of childhood change from generation to generation, but there are some timeless activities that every kid loves. Marilyn Singer and LeUyen Pham celebrate these universal types of play, from organized games such as hide-and-seek and hopscotch to imaginative play such as making mud soup or turning a stick into a magic wand. Lyrical poems and bold illustrations capture the energy of a group of children in one neighborhood as they amuse themselves over the course of a summer day. At a time when childhood obesity rates are soaring and money is tight for many families, here is a book that invites readers to join in the fun of active play with games that cost nothing.Binding Type: Hardcover

Suction cups aren’t the best
Color: Black+Smiley Face
The suction cups don’t hold and my smiley sponge isn’t snug on the post so it sometimes falls off.

Sticks and stays in place!!
Color: Black+Smiley Face
Love love loveeee this! Took me a while to find one that actually sticks and stays in place.
I've had mine for a few months now. Looks just like the photos & comes with the suction cups and an adhesive strip if you want a firmer hold.
The suction cups work just fine.
Would recommend 👍🏾😁

MoreThan Just A Shelf
Color: 1set, Size: 24inch
Absolutely love this Helsin 3-Tier Industrial Pipe Shelf! It completely transformed a blank wall in my home office into a stylish, functional display area that’s equal parts rustic charm and industrial cool. The real wood shelves are thick, sturdy, and beautifully finished with that perfect rustic vibe. Combined with the heavy-duty black metal piping, this unit feels rock solid once mounted. Zero wobble. I was honestly surprised at how simple the installation was. All the parts were included, instructions were clear, and it went up faster than expected. I had it securely mounted to studs in under 10 minutes. This shelf works just as well for books, plants, décor, or collectibles. I’ve got a mix of framed photos, succulents, and vintage finds on mine, and it handles the weight with no issue. It gives vertical storage without eating up floor space, and the combination of rustic wood and industrial pipe makes it a true statement piece. I’ve had multiple compliments already! I could see this shelf fitting perfectly in living rooms, kitchens, offices, or even bathrooms. It’s compact enough for smaller spaces but bold enough to stand out in larger rooms. Highly recommended!

Great shelf
Color: 1set, Size: 32inch, Color: 1set, Size: 32inch
Looked great in home office. Easy to assemble and not too difficult to install. Hardest part was measuring and getting two shelf sets to align properly on the wall but would have been super easy with just one. Will need a drill for the anchors.
