River, Boats, and Fun

I found an idea online to make a river using foil and a garden hose.

James couldn't wrap his brain around the idea until the river was actually in motion.

We made "walls" with the foil so that the water didn't escape and ran the foil all the way down the hill. James made boats with his Lego guys. It was quite the experiment to work out which boats would float and which wouldn't.

 

We got quite a workout running up and down the hill to chase after the boats!

Waste of foil? Waste of water? Maybe. But look at that smile!
