Boat making

We had such a good idea today, Seth wanted to make a boat, so I fashioned this little boat out of paper, a straw, milk lid and playdough.

We thought it looked pretty cool.

Seth was so excited to try it out in his little 'pond'.

Sadly my boat making skills were not up to scratch and the boat sunk like a stone.

So we got some a lid from a peanut butter jar, which Seth wanted to sail some toy soldiers (or marines) on.

We had to get a bigger bucket to float Seth's army. This activty kept him entertained with little mess to clean up at the end and we got to enjoy the sunshine.

Have fun.
