HA! I remember this joke...there was a comedian who used it all the time. Good execution on the sign, my only criticism (design-wise, the PC-ness is osmething else entirely that I'm sure someone else will jump on) is that the boy looks like he just had an accident; that image wouldn't read as "slow" without the text.

I guess its still cutting the first comments.

I just see these signs all the time and they've always made me laugh. I don't know why they still haven't changed the wording 'cause everyone laughs at them. I just always pictured the kid running into something.

I hope no one sees it as offensive, I didn't intend it that way. I just imagine a kid chasing after a football or something and running into a lamp post or the slow children sign itself.

I like the concept and artwork but "At Play" would be better yes. So that there is a better interaction between the image and the text. I have a boy this wild. I'd buy it kids size hehehe : )

very funny and creative, nice job. I like the worn, scratchy attention to detail on the sign.

there was a sign that read SLOW CHILDREN (sans "with play..." apparently that's only some) outside my neighbor's house. ironically, they had the stupidest kids i've ever met.
hence, i love this design. hope it gets printed!

oh man, I definitely ran into a pole once when I was a kid... I was walking backwards then when I turned around *bam* there it was. I always think of that when I see "slow children"

Hey thanks guys! I'm really glad that people realize I'm making fun of the signs, not the kids. I was worried about that.

As for the "at play" addition, I've seen it both ways all over. Sometimes it has "at play" sometimes it doesn't. I thought it was a little cleaner without it. Thanks again for the comments!

Is Johnny SLOW because he hit his head or did he run into the pole because he is SLOW?

I like it.
