Time and Mr. Bucket

In Response To: Help with decision (Mr.Bucket)

Mr. Bucket seems to have enough children to be concerned with the amount of time he has for building. To many building a boat is a small drop in the bucket, but to Mr. Bucket it may be a flood and an ark.
If measuring time is an item of concern Mr. Bucket may consider as few panels as possible and that would probably be the Ches boats. Also, after experience with my Triple and two kids, I would recommend the triple for a few more years with the 9 year old. Good luck. Brian
