Got some kids involved

[drywalldave]

Cynangyl and I went out for a few hours today and meet a couple kids who came to the school to play. Instead they were digging up the coins we found and caught on fast. We both love getting new people, especially kids, involved. The whole 30 minutes we spent with the kids made our day. and they got to keep the coins. They got 7-pennies
2-nickels
2-quarters
And we got
25-pennies
2-nickels
18-dimes
3-quarters
1-Kennedy 1/2 dollar
I do not have a camera to post what we found, but watching those kids made the day

Thanks, the boy was very excited and a metal detector was high on his list for wants. I'm sure when we hit that area again those two will be there

Great thing you did, taking time with the kids. We should all take the time to do the same whenever we can.

I really enjoy it when the kids (the nice well-mannered ones) come around to get a closer look at what I'm doing at the schools..I made friends with Kyle, who introduced me to his friends Brooke and Devin, and then there's Nicholas at another school..it was a pleasure talking with them and answering their questions. Kyle thought the coil was a magnet and that's why it "picked up" coins..trying to explain how it actually worked was a challenge..

Nice going, I'm sure you made their day and gave them something to remember.

HH,
Nat

That was really cool, you might have given them a new outlet. You might be competing with them over undug coins in the future...who knows. HH

WTG Dave on your finds and taking time for teaching the kids about MD'ing.
Last summer the same thing happened to myself a few times while detecting last year,when I'm out and there are kids around more than often they will come over to see what i am doing. After a few minutes of explaining they'll want to try it and see if they could find something theirselves...which i have no problems with,and your right about it making your day..just seeing them having fun finding things can make an outing very enjoyable regardless of going home empty handed.
