ADVENTURE

Sep 18th 2023

A hidden cove appears as the tide washes out and three miniature pirates fight over the wheel. They must navigate a sandbank and weigh anchor. The tallest one wears a rag-tag shirt over modern clothing and orders everyone around. He'll be the best at avoiding a shipwreck. And a quick push and shove from little mate questions whether it is really possible to be that skilled. Another tussle and it is all settled as baby sis screams "Treasure!"

Argument forgotten, three simultaneously jump overboard and race into the dark cave. Murky water and rank air greet them. She sneezes. As their eyes adjust to the cave shadows, the marauders dig their hands in seaweed-covered sand, frantic for a treasured find. The littlest one does find something but of questionable worth. A doggie bone? Eeewww. And covered in mold or something. The fossil is quickly abandoned as the oldest pirate spots another ship approaching due east. 

Racing back to ship, everyone is disappointed to discover it's only Mom at the patio door interrupting them with dinner. 

I'm not sure what our designers had in mind when they built the Mini Daycare Pirate Ship but the possibilities are endless when it is in the vicinity of a rambunctious toddler or two.
