    I learned to hula-hoop. I was never able to do it as a kid. One night after my yoga class (it was a small turn out and only 4 of us were there), I saw some hula hoops laying there from a belly dance class and I commented that I could never do it. Another lady said the same was true for her. So we all picked them up and tried and both of us were able to do it. All four of us stood there laughing and hula-hooping like little girls. What a blast!

    I color...I have a stack of coloring books at my desk for downtime...as well as a super 96 count box of Crayola..bishes, be jealous.
    MOAR LEGOS!

    At least I know I'm not the only one who's bought crayons and a coloring book and colored! I would occasionally do that randomly before I even had a child :)

    Farts. They never get old, and often make me giggle like a kid. I'm a guy though, might not be the same for you ladies. :-)

    Yes, all of the yes.

    Now that I have a son, I do a lot of them. Playing with toys for sure, I might just enjoy them more than he does. Bought him a workbench and a bunch of tools this weekend, and i was opening them up and checking them out when he was sleeping, my wife just laughed at me :)

    blowing bubbles and trying to catch them
    playing hide n seek with my granddaughter
    crawling through mud and splashing in mud puddles

    my favourite - walking on the frozen puddles, breaking through the ice.

    My mom always kept me in line. I never was able to put my fingers or hands on things. I do it all the time now, I walk past something and touch things I probably shouldn't.

    I really enjoy scaring the piss/poop out of people.

    Ditto that. Sneaking up on my husband when he's in the shower and scaring the crap out of him will never get old. Ever.

    I sneak up and scare the crap out of my wife all the time...to much fun! I recently snuck up and poured cold water on her in the shower ... priceless!

    I help out with the Wednesday night kid ministry at church so I get to have an excuse for all that fun! lol

    Bouncy houses
    Water fights
    Wheelbarrow races
    Four Corners
    Four Square
    Singing songs with motions

    Also, as a non-church activity, I love to bust out my old pop cds and sing and dance along with them. And I do the original moves that the bands did. lol

    -pretend the floor is lava
    -play magic
    -stomp my feet and slam doors
    -laugh too loud
    -bubbles! We put glycerin in the bubble mix and blow hookah smoke into them. Then you can put socks on your hands and bounce them around. MAD COOL.
    -skip the cracks on sidewalks
    -"I know you are but what am I?"

    I went for a walk in the park with my 8 year old son a few days ago. When he rolled his eyes and refused to skip with me, I did it anyway. He ran, I skipped. People stared, but I was having a fabulous time with my son (and working up a sweat) so I didn't care.

    AGREED! I love sneaking in the bathroom and scaring my husband in the shower! Or scaring him anywhere, actually! lol

    Last year my buddies and I made a MASSIVE sheet tent in one of their upstairs bonus rooms. It was like 15ftX12ft and was connected to a ceiling fan.
    Farting
    In college we would be in a bar or on campus and we would have an imaginary ball or joint and would throw, kick, nudge, head, pass around our back, dribble and pass it to each other always got a good laugh out of doing that.

    Nope, I still laugh all the time.

    That's why I never get away with it, because I always crack up at my own! :bigsmile:

    "Printer dancing!" I still do this at home but actually caught myself doing it at work recently.

    I used to move to the sound of my Dad's printer printing when I was a kid "errr uh... errr uh" – you know, moving your hips to the sound while waiting for a print and it is so far ingrained I did it completely by accident while waiting at the printer in my office the other day. Luckily no one caught me... lol!

    Laughing until I cry or i snort.

    I love it when this happens!

    Also, I love it when, on very rare occasions, this happens at work with a colleague of mine. Laughing until one of us has to leave the room!
