Cardboard Boat Race - Youngest Racer

Now this dad needs to watch some videos on waterproofing cardboard :) The little boy was between 4 and 5 I'd guess and definitely gung-ho! He took off by himself and made it about 6 feet before he sunk. Loved the Pampers Diaper Box used to help line the boat :) I got some cute shots of his face, but the Pampers just tickled me!

Love this! The Pampers box tickles me too!

Aww, bet he was excited!

[Jane Pittenger]

Poor boy. Hope he wasn’t embarrassed re sinking so quickly. He looks so proud here. Did Jerik enter?

[Milanie]

@jgpittenger He doesn't have that kind of bravery by himself :)

[Esther Rosenberg]

aww, cute, I am sure a learned a lot.

[Taffy]

Hope he was a reasonable swimmer!

[Bill]

What a great competition.

[Issi Bannerman]

Lovely shot and I hope dad was watching him very carefully!

[Diana]

What fun to watch, I too hope that he could swim!

[Joan Robillard]

Wonderful capture

[Pam]

He is brave! I love the pampers box. I love cardboard boat races.

[Casablanca]

That looks like so much fun

[Mags]

What a hoot! Poor little guy. Maybe dad didn't want him to go far. =)

[Bucktree]

The captain must go down with the ship. lol

He is wearing a life vest, and from his posture you might expect him to be familiar with water. Good boy.

[Rick]

Great shot. Yeah, seems like dad should have done a little better job of waterproofing.

[Bill Davidson]

A learning experience!

[Nina Ganci]
