I know how I moved a lot of stuff around using make shift levers, block and tackle and what not.
I always thought of it as a problem to be solved and made a game of it.
I don't know what they are teaching these days.
But sure ain't like when I was in school back in the 40's

I graduated HS in the mid-60’s-and public kindergarten looked so chaotic to my husband and me that he opted to get a 2nd job so we could send the cub to private school, starting with kindergarten-that was in the 70’s-5 year-olds were running around in a big, open classroom screeching, fighting, etc while the teacher sat at her desk ignoring it all-not what we thought of as kindergarten.

I still keep a come-along in my 4x4 as part of my all-purpose toolkit...
