The Baseball

This weekend Daddy and the kids did a little project that Dad has been promising for a while.  They set out to see how a baseball is made.

First, Daddy took off the stitching, revealing 2 odd-shaped flaps of leather.

Then, they got to unwinding.

They took turns,

Finally, no more string!  They found what is in the middle of a baseball!

All this, in ONE little baseball.  Great idea, Daddy!
