It’s a shame how kids these days have no appreciation for games that don’t come with all the shiny bells and whistles of today’s offerings. I was at a park in Williamsburg this past weekend and drew an old-fashioned hopscotch in chalk on the cement. An inquisitive and way-too-funny-to-be-a-three-year-old lad named Ocean remarked how weird the concept of hopping on the sidewalk for entertainment was. It is, I suppose, when you could instead be playing with a replica Iron Man toy with a bazillion points of articulation that shoots laser beams and flies around all over the place. So this post is all about bringing it back to the simpler time, one that I admittedly don’t even remember, yet expect once existed. The Hopscotch Rug ($199.00) again blurs the line between product art and design. Besides being an interesting and stimulating addition to the home, what do you think it is?
