The Stairs

An adventure in building this morning turned in to this staircase being built and tested. The boys said that it wasn't safe enough because the stairs kept moving when they were trying to climb. A discussion ensued about how a staircase is built and how it doesn't move in their house. In the afternoon, they recreated the staircase and then created a game. The rules stated that you could only go up two steps and then you had to try and toss the car car into the hole at the end. Later they placed a small log at the end and the goal was to try and land their car on the top of the log. At one point, they were measuring the distance from the stair to the end, trying to determine how much they had to move it closer to the stairs before someone would get it in.
