So my favorite family member that is not related to me, gave me & my boys the most wonderful book the last time I was in SA. 50 Dangerous Things (you should let your children do). We've had so much fun doing little things that the book says are dangerous. The kids even spent a little time doing blogposts themselves about their latest adventure.
Being extra adventurous this week, I cleaned out the hall closet and found an old printer that refused to print any more. So we chose to have a little fun doing #34 Deconstructing an appliance. My mom and Margie have bought some small ones for when we get back to SA, but this was good practice. At first they just wanted to get it in pieces until I sat down with them and talked about learning how they are put together and what goes where and why. The next time we do this we should learn so much more.
So far we've licked a 9-volt battery, driven a car, spent an hour blindfolded, and learn the art of swordplay. Hmm, maybe we should whittle next - but hopefully with pa-pa in charge.

This post reminded me to go get that book. I bet my little local bookstore downtown has it in stock.
