Surfing the Inner N8

Recently I wrote about ways to escape from little preschool children who try to catch you and lock you up in the train jail. Today I discovered two more techniques:

• When there are about 14 little hands grabbing onto you and leading you toward the train jail and escape seems impossible, yell: “Race to the train jail!” When the kids take off running, go the other way.
• The kids like to pretend that the train jail is on fire. When they sound these cries of alarm, suggest that everyone can work together to put out the fire by waving their hands around. After they let go of you to wave their arms, you’re liberated.
