Engineering a Zip-Line

We have some engineers on our hands or maybe just six crazy kids! 

Actually I thought it was pretty awesome what they came up with!

The teether ball string was caught way up in the tree at my parents house. They got one of Dad's ropes and tied it to the teether ball and strung it across to the basketball goal and tied it off. 

Then they rolled the big plastic cube that they play on over to the teether ball pole, so they could climb up on it, and it would be high enough to get them up to the top of the teether ball pole. Then they found an old towel.  

So Mom is watching them thinking what are they going to do with this towel. They threw it over the rope, and we're going to hold on to the towel, and zip line down this rope. Ha!! 

Well, the only one that would do it, was Jaxon!! Don't know if it's because he was the lightest one, or probably because he has no fear!

That took some thinking and problem solving skills!
