We bought a gutter!
Josh doesn't seem too surprised anymore when I put random things in our shopping cart. We went to Fleet Farm the other day to buy legs for our table that we were building, and we ended up leaving with this plastic gutter, some extremely large nuts and bolts and some clear plastic tubing from the plumbing section.
I'll explain the gutter, and note I have so many plans for us with this thing. Already it has been a huge hit with the kids just letting them explore it on their own.
I love seeing what they come up with. Like using it as a tunnel for the battery-operated trains!
I never would have thought to use it this way!
I usually dislike these battery operated trains because they require no help from the kids when they are on the track. Meaning, the kids can just sit and stare at them, and they don't use much of their imagination or bodies during play.
However, this was a creative and new use for them!
They have also been busy putting the trains down the gutter.
Or up the gutter..
The other day they were sending plastic animals down.
Or racing two trains!
We found two Toby's at our house. Someone is stealing them from "Choo Choo Grandma's" house. We now have about 4 trains to return.
