My dad would not allow me to dig holes in the lawn. My sandbox had a plywood bottom ffs! Neighbors had a sandbox with no bottom and I thought it was so cool! We could dig forever
My kids still do this. It’s great to see them enjoy the little things. The only bad part is they (and the dog) never fill the holes back in. Rough on the guy mowing.
Shit, that was me growing up in the 90s
The fuck is this shit. My kids do it now and it’s 2024.
You think boys don’t love dirt now or something?
Heck yeah! There was a brief time when a mound of dirt and some G.I. Joe figures were all I needed.

We called it “The Digging Place”
Digging to Australia…
Add a dog and some bicycles strewn around and that was very much my 70s childhood.
Yup. And when I was thirsty, I drank from the hose.
Born 92. In 1999 I had half my grade digging for the chamber of secrets in the playground sandbox. Teachers told me to stop. I had all the power.
Dirt. The greatest toy a boy could have
Yes because my mom locked us out of the house for most of the day in the summertime
Digging to China
Yes!
We did this in the 90s
This looks very universal. Kids play in dirt since the birth of humankind and my daughter played with dirt yesterday.

yeah that was me ,
’80s but not toy cars
This is me now… I’m 44.
I think my favorite part is that people think kinds don’t still do this. My kids were doing this the other day. Nothing has changed.
I play like this around 2000s with little cars on autumn sun. Nice times
Was me in the 80s. Blowing up toys with fire crackers. Still got all my fingers!
Me and my baby brother and our Tonka trucks hauling dirt
Yes, grew up in that era
Definitely, but when we finished digging the holes / garages we’d get bored and play something else
Haha this was me )
