Don’t Make a Rake-t

November 25, 2008

There’s one fun thing about the fall. It’s not tests in school or the chilly, bitter cold that creeps up, even into the warmest jackets. It’s the leaves! The leaves change colors and turn the air fragrant with their smell. Fall is wonderful!!! But then, the leaves do that thing they do in the fall. That is, they, um, fall. And that’s the not so nice part, because you’re the one who has to rake them up.

Here are a few tips for keeping yourself cool and breezy when you’re raking leaves:

  1. Start on one side of the yard and work toward another side. If you keep walking from one part of the yard to another, you’ll track leaves to places you’ve already raked.
  2. Pick a wind-less day. Even a little bit of wind while you’re raking could blow your pile away and spoil your hard work.
  3. Jump in the leaves first, then rake. Don’t rake your big leaf pile up and then jump… you’ll make a mess! If you want to jump in the leaves and play, rake up a small pile first. You won’t feel too bad destroying it and messing stuff up again.
  4. Make little piles. Make a bunch of little piles in your hard while you’re raking. This means you won’t have to drag the leaves too far to a big central pile. Once you’ve made a bunch of smaller piles, rake those together in a central location.

There you go. Now you’ll rake smart instead of raking hard. And don’t forget that tip about jumping in the leaves… you’ve got to have your fun, too!
