As our new cub scout, Linus is enjoying many of the programs for the first time. It turns out that the first "construction race" he's gotten to do is the notorious space derby (which I still remember from my youth with some bitterness). We didn't receive his kit until Sunday, and it was Tuesday before we really started getting the rocket together. Linus ended up with a pretty sharp entry, though -- especially with his attentive paint job. And although the races weren't competitive (thankfully), he had a winning rocket until his inattentive father over-wound its propeller, busting the rubber bands.
