Hi Colin

I bet you all had a great Xmas Day. My wife refers to me as "Peter Pan" and I am up for adoption, just love those toys.

Cheers

Little Jo

Default Starting the kids or grand kids early

Hi Colin

Great project and one the will be remembered by years from now. Here two pictures of starting grandson in early.

I take no credit for the Jeep, wood shop project my brother found at a flea market. He added the steering which works both at the child's end and at the motive power end parent walking and pushing from behind. Was surprising how quickly grandson realized that if he turned the wheel the jeep turned.

Next phase is CMPs as seen in the picture.

The Sponge Bob motif really appealed to grand daughter. Who is looking back to "say why did we stop?"

Cheers Phil

Hi all, the faces and on the children is absolutly priceless. I must admit, there's not much I would'nt do for my kids to see them happy. Of course there is a bit of self gratification as well.
