The joy of hide-and-seek. Devin Lewis, 13, and mom Nataiya Brewton hide from three-year-old Demetri George outside Lincolnwood Elementary School. Demetri isn’t pictured because he gave up and ran to the nearby playground. This was his first time playing the game outside. “In the house, he hides in the same spot every time for the day,” said Brewton of her son. “It might be the bathtub, or it might be under the table.” Demetri is a better seeker. “When he catches me, he likes to scare me,” said Devin.
