While watching Sesame Street, Clayton saw Elmo make a boat out of foil and pencils. He acquired all of the supplies and got to work building a boat for his dinosaur.
I was a little worried about it being so small. Clayton explained that the dinosaur was small, so he needed a small boat. I decided to just let it go.
In fact, it didn't float. It slowly, slowly sank further into the water. Amazingly, the dinosaur was still on top!
Heeding my advice, Clayton built this boat. While he thinks it is way too big for his dinosaur, he wasn't taking any chances this time around. The boys ended up taking two tubs of water to our back deck where they built more boats for most of the afternoon.
