We’ve all had those moments when we guiltily indulge in things that are meant for children. While we were at the state fair of Texas, I actually told one of my friends yesterday that we couldn't get on a ride because it was a children’s ride. It got me thinking. First of all, that was pretty mean of me to say and secondly, who cares? Who cares if it’s meant for children? If it’s fun, and we enjoy it, why not? I refuse to let myself become an ageist. There should be no shame in having fun! So here’s a list of 11 things that are designed for children but we will never get too old for:

1. Capri Suns — otherwise known as the best damn juice pouch on planet Earth.

2. Bounce Houses — no explanation needed.

3. Face Painting — who doesn’t want to look like a mermaid, lion or a pirate for a day?

4. Trick or Treating — duh, candy.

5. Watching Disney Movies—because I’ll always wanna be where the people are.

6. Building a Blanket Fort — who needs a man cave when you can have a blanket fort?

7. Playingin the Sprinklers — come on, not all of us have a pool.

8. Balloon Animals — if anything, it’s just fascinating to watch the process of them being made.

9. Happy Meals — once again, no explanation needed.

10. Themed Birthday Parties — it’s my birthday, and I will use little mermaid plates and cups if I want to.

11. Friendship Bracelets —even if it's with your dog.
