Bathroom talk

N: Mom? How big is Clifford's poop?

This question sparked one of our more interesting family conversations in the last week. How could Birdwell Island dispose of or use Clifford's poop? (For reference: http://pbskids.org/clifford)

Natasha's ideas:
1. "Give it to a blue whale to take out to sea to decompose."
When it was mentioned that dog poop may harm sea animals. She amended her suggestion with "wash the poop with a big soap to get the germs off first."

2. Burn the poop

3. "Grow pumpkins. Make one into a Jack-o'-lantern and let the others grow bigger and then Clifford could poop into the other big pumpkins."

Then put the poop-laden pumpkins on people's doorsteps, light the stem on fire, ring the doorbell, and RUN!
