Samtanic

Sammy has taken quite an interest in the Titanic....its story, how it sank, why it sank, how many people got on the lifeboats, the role of the Carpathia, etc. He asked for a Titanic toy, but there aren't too many out there, so we bought a small wood model. With careful use of masking tape, Sammy painted all the surfaces and did some of the gluing.



The wood model kit...
...we used materials that far exceeded those of the original...



The highest construction standards were used in constructing this Titanic.
We had no intention of a repeat performance on it's maiden voyage.


Sammy painted all the surfaces and did some gluing...
(with some help)

Sammy Scissors...

Sammy has been interested in the Titanic for a few weeks now. He pulls out a large photo book we have about it and asks us to read to him about it. Paul was trying to put together a paper model of the Titanic for Sammy one day...and Sammy started cutting out a small photo of the Titanic and surprised us....
