This weekend while upstairs with Mom, Luke, and myself Alyce was having fun with a tried and true child favorite toy, a laundry basket. Alyce pulled a basket off of the stack, sat in it, and called it her boat. She seemed to have fun just riding adrift in the ocean that was our bedroom but I wanted to add something to make her experience more active. I took a clothes hanger, gave it to her, and told her it was an oar so she could paddle her boat. She took to this and quickly became an expert at navigating the high seas. I decided to join along and crouched in a basket paddling my own boat too.
Later that day while downstairs Alyce must have thought her boat upstairs was much too roomy and decided to cast off in her life raft. So with her trusty telescope she was ready for adventure on the high seas.
