Jacob's Ladder Toy

Hi Cynthia.....
The first thing that popped into my head was those souvenir "toys" kids (and a few of us adults) play with ---the little blocks of wood held together by ribbons. When you pick up one end and tilt it the little blocks go flapping down like a waterfall. "Jacob's Ladder" I believe they are called.

Here's a WEBSITE that has visual instructions on how to make one.

(the Internet is amazing, isn't it)

I was thinking "blocks of wood" because we just threw out a stack of wood blocks someone had painted the books of the Bible on (they were beat up and not very well done). <>< Neil
