Lynn,
Thanks for your input. You've got some good ideas, even if you were just
being silly. This is the sort of co-ed search party I had in mind. We could
have one wise, though short-sighted, inspector-type main character along with
several "sidekick" characters without whom the search would fail. Not so much
for the sake of being politically correct, but just to convey the idea that
everyone can cooperate and enjoy this hobby together. After all, this isn't
something that one kid should go off and do alone. It's something for the
whole family or a group of friends.
As for the erasers, I have also made small stamps by carving into pencil
erasers (firmly attached to the pencil). But I think you missed the topic of
discussion. We were referring to the idea of using empty pencil eraser
casings as a safe carving tool for kids. This came from the pages I've been
preparing for Kids Corner. Take a look, if you haven't already:

LOL yep, I missed that completely. My apologies! I mean, actually, I remember
reading that now, but by the time I replied to later notes, I had forgotten
the actual topic. Sorry :-D
