The Day I Taught My Kids To Start A Fire With A Magnifying Glass

I'd done it before, but today was the day that the lesson sunk in. Even as I type, the kids are in the back yard finding things to burn. Will I regret this some day? Maybe. My older kids are fairly responsible, but I fear for my youngest son, who seems to be far more interested in this than he really should be for an almost-3-year-old. Nevertheless, this is something every kid needs to learn ... isn't it?!
