More Toys for Grownups

I squish you.There’s a heavy equipment playground near Las Vegas called Dig This® where grownups can use real construction equipment in a giant sandbox!

I’ve written some already about big people toys and their significance. Dig This is further demonstration that adults know how to play, want to play, and maybe even need to play.

My goal is to introduce high-tech into play — in a larger sense than only gaming. Now that I’m off at grad school, I’m just now starting to delve into the topics I hope will get us there.

I think some adults need to be forced to act like big kids..it is so much fun! Would love to have a go of the construction equipment myself!
