That's what we learned about this week, so we built coracles from pipe cleaners and plastic bags. The girls thought we should test them out, so we outfitted several princesses and sent them on their way. To the girls' delight, they floated quite well (for quite a while, until someone inadvertently splashed a little too enthusiastically and sank them). I think it added to the girls' enjoyment to be able to visualize a little better what Reepicheep found and kept in The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, which they are reading with Matt in the evenings.
