Pinewood Archery

Calvin designed an arrow-shaped car for the Pinewood derby. He was a good sport not winning, and liked it's cool design and the fact that he did most of the work himself. We went out to a woodworking toy shop in Marlborough to get the cars cut (after the kids designed them), and they were able to paint them onsite. The person who runs the shop is both jovial and crotchety at the same time- a good combination when there are power tools, paint, and wee kids all around.

Ivy's pink and purple heart wedge car came in first in the sibling race. She was so very proud of her victory, and Calvin was a great sport about it. His job was to take pictures with Peter's phone.
