Do they still sell bags of "cowboys and indians" (or should that be, "Frontier Immigrants and Native Americans")? My guys used to have little tan "cowboys" and little green "indians" that came in a plastic bag. Too bad one or two parents can't find a bag of the things and donate them for everyone to use. Worst case scenario, spray paint some other action figure lying around your house and say it's the required Native American.

It's sad when your 4th grader is doing Geometry, and they're actually CALLING it Geometry. My freshman is taking Honors Geometry, and he's already had to help his little brother. Thank heavens for the "Oldest Sequenced sibling" I guess
Best lesson I've learned for homework is to *always* have a stash of posterboard on hand. Ever try to find posterboard when you don't live in a major metropolis after 9pm?
