evidently this rule is a quotation from the great maker of rules. I also like the non-parallel demands of "Enforce No Climbing" and "No Running" (I guess it's not enforced). Thanks, Apryl.

Is that supposed to be a list of the parents' responsibilities? So, the parents aren't allowed to run, even if children are climbing?
Jeff, I have begun to believe that you hate children.
As for me, I try to MAKE my children chew their food. I don't think "no chewing" needs to be a rule since I can't get my bunch to slow down enough to make such a rule necessary.
Please send your submissions via email to bethanykeeley (at) gmail.com. I look at them all, but it might take a while to get to yours -- sorry! I love you all, but I only have so much energy in a day.
If you want your picture to make the blog DO NOT @tweet them, or leave them in a comment. I need them all in the same place. Make sure your emails are easily distinguishable from spam or viruses (I use gmail web interface, so images get previews).
I don't usually post the following: newspaper headlines, personal email, craigslist postings, unprofessional websites. I also tend to not crosspost things from other blogs, since I have so much unique material waiting for me to get to it.
Things I see a lot: silica gel "do not eat"; hair dryer labels; inside the bus "do not drill"; Wal-mart sign about IDs; coffee machine with "2" cup sizes; employees must "wash hands"; that failblog post.

I read "Enforce No Climbing" as meaning "Do not enforce any climbing". That makes it more congruent with the other demands.
Well if they can't chew gum or food, what ARE they allowed to chew?
I hope they teach the Heimlich Maneuver there!
Good slogan for a playground. Very succinct AND authoritarian.

and to think my parents encouraged food-chewing. i must say it is hard to get a hamburger down whole, but rules are rules.
