Posts that I never got around to posting: What exactly is parachute time?

...and "daily Circle time"?!?

Sounds like something they might have had back in the day at "The Anvil" or "The Sewer".

You don't know Parachute time? You're missing real fun...
usually parents/caregivers grab bright-colored parachute over the heads of babies, waving it up and down, singing "if all the raindrops are gumdrops.." Then babies get on the parachute on the floor and adults circle around them singing "ring around a rosie" or some such.
Yeah, it looks like a kind of cult, a bit hare krishna-ish I admit, but hey, we're moms....

Ah! Thanks, Rmom... am not familiar with this ... We didn't have this when I when I was a kid. My mom did like Peter, Paul & Mary, though.
