Tiny Teen Tina's Troublesome Time
- Get yourself across the room to the food while avoiding a nasty, sly, and quick cat
Tina will find some sort of foil or plastic wrap or something to crinkle up in a noisy ball. She'll toss it out in front of the cat and do a mad dash across the room while the cat is distracted playing with the makeshift toy.
Just in case that doesn't work she's going to arm herself with a thumbtack. Cat tries to swat her, it gets a poke in the toe bean. Sorry, kitty!
- Get up to the ceiling. Your friend is trapped up there on a kids' helium balloon and you need to rescue them!
And now Tina is glad she took that string earlier. She'll fashion a lasso and tie it securely to... whatever sort of rafter, hanging light, or ceiling fan that's up there. Then she'll shimmy up it like in gym class. Even if she hates gym class. At least she didn't mind the rope climb so much, if only because she could stare at the boys' butts when they climbed... anyway, after shimmying up she'll get her friend and then they'll shimmy back down the string to safety. Whew!
- Drainpipes! Construct a boat or submarine or something to help you surf down the pipes when it's too risky in the house and you have to bail
"Uhhhhh let's see... what floats well..."
Tina's first thought is to make a paper boat like she'd done with her siblings a bunch of times, but that might not hold up too well... so she's going to see if there's any styrofoam cups in the kitchen. That should be sturdier, she can make a nice styrofoam boat. With plastic spoons for rowing. Yes, perfect!
