    Phil and Fritzi need to fill them in on more of the great adventures that we used to have “in the olden days.”

    Back in the olden days—you didn’t get hurt from a tumble! You got back up and did it again!

    …or we would use trash can lids…if the handle was missing. Funny how those lid handles managed to dissapear in the winter.

    Actually, the first one we had back in the 50s was fiberglass; the later ones were metal. The Internet is curiously silent on the history of saucer sleds, but I think I remember my father speaking of our first one as a new invention.

    You can also use one as the dome of a snow cave, if you live far enough north that you can build one in the first place.
