Surprise Your Mouth!

On the subject of toothpaste pros and cons, my whimsical friend told me she keeps three kinds on hand, grabbing them at random so she can surprise her mouth! How about shaking up a routine day by turning that cute idea into a game for the other senses? Try closing your eyes and opening one of your spice jars–can your nose figure out which one it is? What about tying a scarf over your eyes and exploring the depths of your closet with your fingertips? Or squeeze your eyes shut and put your face in front of a fan, listening carefully to all the nuances of sound made by that artificial wind. Hmmm, these examples all bypass seeing. I wonder how much using our eyes takes away surprise?
