We don't do that anymore

While attending my son's first baseball game, as a coach, I watched two little girls play. I realized that there are so many things that used to bring us joy as children. Unfortunately, we just don't have time for them anymore. What were they doing?
Here's a small list of what I saw in that hour:

running for no reason
playing with branches
drawing in the sand
shouting out nonsense words and laughing
running to the edge of the fence, just to make their parents crazy
eating ice cream very slowly and letting it drip all over them

I wonder if we start doing these things again, would make us as happy as we were then. Can you come up with anything else?
