Half Term Holidays -----------

For grand-dads & grand-children

[Bob Tucker]

Is that a steam boiler?

In a plastic bottle?

Luckily you live far away from any H&S interference

[fry61]

Plastic bottle catches fire --- boat sinks --- fire goes out. What could be more H&S than that ??

You are lucky my kids only interact with IT, must have wifi and charging point.

Tell them if they can't put nuts & bolts together how can they design a better gismo on their 'putor. My youngest daughter is an engineer, hopefully in part due to the practical things we did as she grew up; she now runs a cad drawing office for communication towers --- BIG MECCANO

[Bob Tucker]

All 4 of my grandsons love tinkering in the garage....even the one year old

uses a battery drill (without a bit!) to make indentations in a lump of wood.

 

The grand daughter has shown no interest at all so far.

Maybe at a week old it's a bit soon

[fry61]

Give her a small adjustable spanner as a rattle --- can't start early enough.
