Here’s an idea
Why not link this to a discussion around why different materials float and sink?
Why
Commander Edward John Smith was the Captain of the Titanic and you can see his statue in Beacon Park whilst on your Lichfield Pawprint Trail! The Titanic was the largest ship afloat at the time of her maiden voyage from Southampton to New York on which she sank after hitting an iceberg on April 15th 1912.
