440cm

440cm is a lot.

Seriously, when Greg added a 440 by 440cm twister board to the list, did he think through how big it actually is??

Apon pulling out several tarps and a tape measure at the Water's house, we were confronted by the reality of how big 19.36 square metres is.

After pondering a while, Andy came out with some plastic drop sheets, and we began stapling together 193600 square centimetres of plastic twister board base.

The next problem, coloured circles... 144 of them... 36 of each colour...

There simply isnt that much coloured paper around, even in a house with 5 kids, so we did what we could (pink is close enough to red), and decided we would find more later.

After dropping Tim home, getting a top and finding some more paper, we cut the rest of the circles, and contemplated the task of sticking 12 rows of 12 to 19360000 square millimetres of plastic.

The solution? Glue, dummy...

Lots of glue...

And some more glue...

And Done!!!

AND HUGE!!!!!

A super sized spinner later, we're done, and im off home to bed
