What do you do when your pirate ship springs a leak?
You bale out!
But then Daddy (Uncle) comes along and tells you to put the bale back in. Daddy is particular about stuff like that.
Then it becomes a problem solving/strength building exercise.
Which, in many ways is just as entertaining as the pirate ship was in the first place.
For the watching grown-up anyway.
It’s good for them. It builds character, and muscle, and teaches them not to scatter farm supplies to the four winds.
All valuable lessons for life.
