I'm starting to think that maybe it wasn't such a great idea to teach my children how to make Popsicle Stick Grenades yesterday... I tried, but I just couldn't keep this idea to myself, after Beth shared a link to the instructions.
My boys have been having a little too much fun! Their latest creation is a "Popsicle Stick Bomb" - made by very carefully tying a whole bunch of "grenades" together with a shoelace and then swinging it towards
Oh my goodness! We've got two different sized grenades being manufactured here! Tell your boys that reinforcements are coming from Texas!
ReplyDeleteFYI...the larger sized crafts sticks are a little easier for them to build with, so don't get any of those! :)
Oh, those are sooo cool, you will also have reinforcements from the midwest--Snowy MN!!
ReplyDeleteI think we need a "like" button for comments on blogs! :) My children would absolutely LOVE having the "reinforcements" over to play!!
ReplyDeleteMy kids have been known to cover the entire floor of the playroom with bombs! I don't know where they learned about them, but it makes that $5 I spent on 1000 craft sticks so many years ago all worth while.
ReplyDeleteGo to the Kinetic King's page on YouTube, and you'll find videos of huge (3000+) stick bombs...
ReplyDeleteThat is really amazing! I had no idea. . . I will have to show the boys those videos!
ReplyDeleteI have a feeling I'll be looking this post up in a couple years. What great boy fun.
