Fix-it-Friday

Ok todays post is another make it post. While I've not made this yet myself it is for an outdoor science day I'm doing soon.
Make your own.... catapult! These look really cool and could be great if we ever get any hot weather to fire water bombs. You can just use garden canes, elastic bands and plastic cups.
I've got a couple of links to point you at, but I'm sure kids could come up with their own designs to. Anyway the sites are here and here.
Have fun!
Be sure to head over to Jo to see the other posts.

  2. Thanks for the summer idea! That should keep just about any age kids busy for a long time.

  5. hi
    great idea Not for 2 years old LOL but my 14 yr would love it.He was a cub and a scout -till he ditched it.

    I'm here from NaComLeavCom.
    For months I had no comments save a few from a friend and even she didn't bother commenting that much *sob*
    I started joining the weekday memes and visiting random sites - and started to get a few regulars. Linking to other blogs get you noticed too. They see you on Technorati and Google analytics.

    Hang in there.
    Fix it Friday sounds fun.

  7. Hmmm... I don't think the boy is quite capable of building that yet... heck... he just learned to crawl yesterday. I think it may be a while. Guess I could build it for me?
