As you may, or may not know, being the parents of big kids, the preschool playground has a little water feature with a barrel and a little culvert for water to run through for water play.

Stella has seen it, and she and Stella and Elizabeth and several others on and off have been making a tiny dragon village in the corner of the playground with caves and clay roads and bridges. I repurposed a bucket for them to carry clay to their village, which gave Stella an idea. She borrowed the drill and drilled a small hole in the bottom of the bucket, and placed it at the top of her river bed. Then she filled the bucket with water. Now they have “tiny squirrel river” which runs through the river bed, under the clay bridge, and into the lake.
