For activity days we have a pine wood derby for the girls and they loved it! I loved seeing all the creativity. We had Hershey bars, to Nancy Drew, to Just Married, to Polly Pocket cars. Haha, loved it :). The fun part about it too, is that we let the creativity be unrestricted, which means now weigh-ins! Cami and Jeremy took advantage of that and made 'Gold Rush'... it feels like a brick of gold! A normal derby car would have to come and weigh in no more than 5 oz. Well, Cami's was nearly 2 lbs! Lol, and it got fastest in her age group. Surprised me alitte, I wasn't sure if the weight would squish the wheels beneath it ;). Way to go Cami! And Jeremy too, because they were the master minds and creators of 'Gold Rush'.
Part of our job as activity day leaders were coming up with award names for each car. Haha, that was a push for my foggy preggo brain to say the least! ;)
So fun though, love the derbies.
