Into the blue sky...
I wonder what my kids will be when they grow up. Tony has a love for science and how things work. For his birthday my parents got him a rocket kit. He followed the directions and built the rocket, now it is time to fly it into the blue sky. This part requires the assistance of a parent (and maybe one Lily)...
If you notice the directions are close by....
Not sure if the directions are being used....
After, lets say a good 15 minutes, I have decided to go take a seat...
I am thinking this might take awhile...
Hurray...they have realized those directions are a useful tool....
Lets get a closer to see what they are trying to figure out...
Getting the parachute and engine in the rocket is a little bit more difficult then they thought....
Looks like they are ready...
Setting up the remote control launcher....
And we are off...
Into the blue sky....

Wendy that is a great project! HE looks like he really liked it. My hubbby would enjoy that. I'll have to look into getting him one too.
Stay cool! ~Melissa
Oops. I didn't mean to write he in all caps. Lol! :)
Would you believe that my 8 year old got almost the exact same rocket kit from my parents for his birthday??!! :-) Sounds like our boys are 2 peas in a pod as lovers of science and mechanics!

So fun!! My nephew would love something like that!
Aww that is so sweet, and what a great bithday present.
They never want to read the directions around here and then yell for me to help them. First thing I do...read the directions!
Have a great weekend,
Melissa
Oh Wendy this brings back memories...we had one of these. Finally shot off and never came back...LOL...we think it landed in a tree.
I love success stories.
