Wolf Like Me

At Little Boy’s preschool, “walking” is out, and “scrambling around animal-like on your hands and feet with your butt in the air” is in. I think Little Boy may have had a hand (and foot, and butt) in creating this trend; I observed at a birthday party last Saturday that no one in his class can do it with quite the skill and speed as he can.

Apparently it’s even cooler to couple the scrambling locomotion with animal noises (horses, lions, and in the video below, wolves.)

I wouldn’t recommend trying the scramble to anyone over 4 foot tall. It’s a little hard on the knees.

Though I worry about banged heads and broken fingers, I tolerate Little Boy doing it in the house. On freezing cold winter days, I even encourage the scramble because it torches a ton of Little Boy energy. Do it again, son. And again. I’ll make another video!
