Sept 24: Jump by bulldog

Sept 24: Jump

An interesting one today... Recently one of my sons has been making origami jumping frogs, so I thought this would be an easy one. Unfortunately they do not jump very high, if fact they do more like a forward roll. So what can you do when you are in this situation?
Simple.. Build a little cardboard ramp and rest it on a plastic hippo. Now place it directly in front of a very worried looking, non-jumping frog and race a small Kinder-Egg car up the ramp.
Job done!

Day 24 of the 'september-list' photos and the 'october-list' is now here.

Thanks you m9f9l, Cecila and Miley, but the credit has to go to Pat for reminding me I have a little pull-back racing car.

September 24th, 2012  
Honestly, how do you come up with these ideas! You are so creative and have such humour, I love it!

@gphelps5 I suggest you clean it up before your wife finds out!.....Quick!! : 0
September 24th, 2012  
Oh you've got one too! Mine, ahem, I mean my grandson's, was yellow. Ever ingenious Bulldog, this is great fun and very intriguing the way the car is suspended there pre-jump.
September 24th, 2012  
@annbo Haha! Yes! Just right!
September 24th, 2012  
Pam

Very creative.
September 24th, 2012  
Oh Lord. Some of these comments have my mind working over time. Clever shot as always Bulldog. 10 out of 10 for creativity and imagination :)
September 25th, 2012  
You're so creative and fun!
September 25th, 2012  
WOW - 'Creative' I don't think I have ever been called that before (slightly mad, loads of times, but never creative). Thank you so much EVERYONE, I am so glad that you enjoy my creativity and hope I raise a smile.

Good point ladies, you really did make me laugh though Ann. I could just imagine myself sneaking off to the playroom, while no-one is looking.
And I love your self denial in your "Mine, ahem, I mean my grandson's" comment Pat and in answer to your question, the blue one are magic and can hover...

You are so creative. I like the fact that you enjoy playing with toys... Me too.
September 25th, 2012  
@gphelps5 nice thought..some of mine went astray!!
September 25th, 2012  
Fabulous fun shot! This photo a day thing has a way of really stretching the imagination!
September 25th, 2012  
...and nearly killed the plastic Hippo!

My origami frogs would never jump either! Fun shot!
September 25th, 2012  
Wonderful shot! Love the very worried looking, non- jumping frog! :D I'll have to try and make one for myself. :)
September 25th, 2012  
Do you not have any elephants? Being taller than hippos, they would give the ramp higher elevation and the kindercar would have a better chance of clearing Frogigami.

Non-Jumping frogs are a bit rubish Therese and Junan.
@monkeykid @paintdipper

Hi Alison, yes I have an elephant but he is only 1 inch high?
@dulciknit
September 25th, 2012  
@gphelps5 That's a little bit of a shame! ;-)
September 25th, 2012  
What about getting the elephant to stand on top of the portaloo?
September 25th, 2012  
Fantastic jump! I didn't even notice the origami frog at first! Too cool!
September 25th, 2012  
Thanks for taking the time to comment Chris and Ana. I really do appreciate it.
