And they're off!!!!! With so many kids in the house over Christmas, we needed plenty of ideas to keep them busy. Last year Scott helped the boys make Pine Wood Derby cars for cub scouts. This year our pine wood derby isn't for a couple more months so they decided to build and race "rockets", just for fun!!!!
All the boys spent time out in Scott's shop, building their rocket. They had to paint them and do all the finishing touches. When they were finally ready, Scott rigged up the fishing line for them to race down!
The boys quickly learned what type of design was best suited for racing, as some were faster than others. All in all though, I think they all had a lot of fun, win or lose!!!
Good Job Boys!!!!!
