You're trapped in a well with a goat and a slinky. Describe how you will escape.
In my creatively fertile six-year old mind, I would have the goat cut the slinky with his teeth so I end up with four slinkies. Then I would strap the slinkies to his hooves, get on his back and get him to jump, until he jumped so high we'd be back on high ground. Then, I'd jump all over the countryside until the goat got tired. Weeeeeeee!
