One day on the Pontoon boat in WI, my husband put Luke on his lap to steer the boat. It has been tradition to let all the grandkids sit and steer. Well no matter how much my husband tried, Luke didn’t want to have anything to do with the steering.
Instead he wanted to touch all the cool buttons. There were all these buttons on this screen Luke’s grandparents have right by the wheel on the boat. It finds the depth and temperature of the water, along with showing the fish underneath. Of course Luke would want to play with that!
Well my husband kept telling Luke not to touch the buttons, but of course he continued to touch them. So Luke’s time as “captain” did not last long. What I tried telling my husband was that this was great OT for him. The fact he was touching the buttons and trying to touch them was wonderful, even if he caused something to change on the screen.
Despite that, I was thrilled for Luke, so once daddy kicked him out of the “captain’s chair” I walked him to the front of the boat to assume the “Titanic Position”. This is where we spent the rest of our “trip” around the lake, feeling the wind in our face.
