My son Kieran is in love with wheels. He always has been. When he was younger he would take his sister's toy shopping cart and just run and run and run pushing it in big circles through the house.
Today I sent him to take out the garbage and put the garbage can out on the street. But he was gone for a really long time. I went out to see what he was up to, and got out on the driveway just in time to see him sailing down the hill on Aiden's tricycle, with the garbage can hooked on the back like this:

He is also in love with towing things, so instead of just pulling the garbage can back up the street and going back for the tricycle, he ran up to the garage for some rope and spent a good 10 to 15 minutes trying to figure out how to rig it all up to pull with the rope.
Finally he just wrapped the rope around the tricycle and pulled them both up the street.

Kids are such characters! Mine especially. During all of this another boy was riding down the hill on a "wiggle car" and walking it back up to ride down again. But something that tame for my son? Never. Kieran just had to try out driving a garbage can. :)
