The Middle of Nowhere

Recess seems to be the favorite part of the school day for many children and now I must agree.  Four and five year olds work hard at their play.  Some of the kids in my class have invented a running around and searching for dragons (and other fairy beasts) game that involves following maps that are "written" on their hands.  One boy comes running up to me, shows me his "map" and says "we are in the middle of nowhere!"  I asked him if it was safe to go visit the edge of nowhere.  He said "yes, we can go there, too".  I'm glad we have that option.
