Do you politely ask your neighbors to stop allowing their kids to blow whistles, or do you just roll your eyes and be grateful that they put the brakes on the fun game of gravel-tossing?
Give a Kid a Whistle, and You Give Him Hope

Hmm. In my neighborhood, the kids haven’t discovered whistles yet. Instead, about once per week, they all gather in the top of the playground equipment and squeal as loudly as they can (nonstop) for about twenty minutes, until I go out and fuss at them.
At least, with whistles, it’s a consistent note and you could even teach them some rhythm to go along with it. Wasn’t that all the rage in about six months’ worth of music a couple of decades ago? I can’t think of a specific song, but I know I’m not imagining it…
