There is another story that resembles "Birds on Board".
A young person comes home from school looking anxious. Their mother asks,
What's wrong darling?
We've got to weigh a pet, Mummy.
Why are you worried about that darling?
I only have a goldfish Mummy and if I take him out of water to put him on the scales he'll die.
He'll only be out for two seconds darling. We'll fill another bowl, transfer him to that and weigh his bowl without him in it. Then we'll pop him back and see how much the weight goes up by.
But Mummy, how will we get him to sit on the bottom?
