Tinkertoy races!





















What would your first thought be upon entering your child's room and seeing this scene? Mine was, "What is this, the beaches at Normandy?", to which my husband replied, "No, Mommy, they're racing. And the animals aren't hanging, they're riding - on reindeer.". Of course, I thought.

Ethel spent much of yesterday's quiet time assembling these colorful reindeer and hosting races for her stuffed animals. Being the crafty thing that she is, she fashioned harnesses out of plastic bracelets, allowing the animals to "ride" the Tinkertoy reindeer.

A scene which was at first distrubing, soon revealed the amazing imagination of my five year old daughter.
