Is the activity above... What would you call it? Stair riding ... coasting ... sliding with grandpa on a big pillow a good idea? I googled 'Big bean bag pillow to ride the stairs' and the 'Lovesac' came up for $800, or the 'Pillow Sac' by another name. Followed by 'Movie Sac' $950, 'Super Sac' $1150 & 'The Big One' $1450. An expensive idea for sure with this option. Good idea? Well, there's always happiness during the middle of the ride. It depends on the landing.
This StairSlide on Amazon for $275 lead me to the thought. 'Is this a good idea?' Little ones, a slide on carpet stairs, what could go wrong? Knowing the fateful landing really helps with the decision .. Is this a good idea?
Which got me thinking about childhood trips to the neighborhood park on a hot summer day. No one could stop the riding of the Big Hot Metal (with rust extra bonus) Slide. The goal to slide down without burning or scraping the skin off the back of your legs and bottom. A game of dare, because the truth is something you and your friends did not even think about. Until one of you is walking home with a pink burn and sometimes bleeding, back end. With a look of disbelief that what you just did was NOT a 'Good Idea'. By the next weekend all is healed and forgotten, and y'all do it all over again!
Here's to Good times with Bad Ideas!! HECK YES AND NO!!!
