• You guys! This video is the funniest I’ve seen in a long time. If you’ve ever thought toddlers resembled tiny drunk people — and seriously, who hasn’t? — you will love it. (via Kottke)
• I am in LOVE with these itty bitty letters from the World’s Smallest Post Service. They’re made by hand with love by the amazing Lea Redmond at Leaf Cutter Designs.

• As Kim and I venture deeper and deeper into the adventure of homeschooling, we find ourselves increasingly more interested by the idea of unschooling.

• Lori from Tiny Buddha has a list of 33 Ways to Be Childlike Today. How many can you accomplish today?

• An Adultitis-free coffee mug if there ever was one!
• “How many things do you do because you’re supposed to, because your relatives and neighbors expect it, because it’s easy and you don’t have to think about it?

(It reminds us of our “Rules That Don’t Exist.”) Read on for her suggestion of something you might want to try focusing on instead of happiness.
• These smiley face screws are 100% Adultitis-free and made of awesome.
