The Goliath Project

The idea was to make a full-sized (9'9") Goliath so the Primary children (11-year-olds) would get an idea of the immensity of the challenge that faced David in the Bible story. They were then to use home-made slings to attack him with marshmallows. Mother Nature did not cooperate--the wind shredded him before I even got him stood up and it blew so hard that the marshmallows were like feathers floating around. This was the only picture I managed. However, all was not lost--the leftover marshmallows were tasty.
