Anatomy of a Craft

At Lucas's daycare, they make a staggering number of crafts. For someone who considers coloring, painting, and Play-Doh about the limit of my crafting knowledge, I am constantly amazed at some of the things he comes home with. Case in point? A pirate ship made from a box, a cardboard tube, and a few other materials. I was actually quite impressed.

As with most crafts Lucas brings home, this one didn't last a considerable amount of time. For whatever reason, he delights in the destruction of his creations as much, if not more, than the actual building process. A benevolent god, he is not.

Unfortunately, he wasn't in the mood for a picture the day he brought the ship home so this is the best shot I have of him and the craft.


Skip to a mere three days later...the pirate ship is long gone, and the box has been repurposed to Lucas's needs.
