Balloon?
We went to the Rhode Island Home Show on Friday, and Sebastian got a balloon Tigger made for him. I ended up picking up a book on how to make basic balloon animals and shapes, plus a pack of balloons.
The first thing he asked me to make was a sword. It was hard as hell to blow up the balloon - they must be a special kind - but the instructions for making the sword seemed pretty straightforward.
Even so, I was surprised. I folded, pinched, and twisted - and the balloon practically exploded into a perfect sword (well, dagger) shape. Sebastian was totally delighted. He immediately had me make another one so that we could duel. After a short bout, I had a stroke of inspiration: I rubbed his sword on his head and then stuck it, magically, to the ceiling. He couldn't have been happier.
