The hover board is cool. He researched how to build it extensively while DH was out of the country for a few months. He kept bugging me for a vacuum cleaner or leaf blower. I totally doubted that he could do it and made him wait for his dad to help with the power saw for the platform. DH really did just help though. It doesn�t have propulsion, which I understand would make it a hover craft, but he can steer it by shifting his weight, like surfing. He told me this week that he wants to make a battlebot next.

I think its notable that so many of the kids discussed here participate in drama.

Dottie,
DD and I really like design make-over shows also. I understand the hair issue. How many hair straighteners do your daughters have? I think mine has three!

I also think the circus class sounds great! Like a "ropes course" for kids!
