My Kingdom for a Stick

Last weekend, I took my son camping along with several other dads and sons.

I have decided that there is no need to buy an expensive toy for an- 8-12 year old boy. You only need a stick. Over the evening and morning, the boys discovered the following uses for sticks:

Tool for roasting a hot dog
Tool for roasting a marshmallow
Tool for incinerating a marshmallow
Tool for roasting a pinecone
Tool for roasting leaves
Smoke generating machine
Fire poker
Pistol
Rifle
Staff
Laser Gun
Machine Gun
Sword
Machete
Light Sabre
Walking stick
And finally, fuel for the fire.
