Using a tunnel in the school play yard or classroom would be a good substitute for the log, but not nearly as fun or memorable for the children.

Till I thought about it as understanding how to line up numbers for addition, multiplication division etc. Always liked math but never thought about understanding those terms as a building block for math skills.
