Kids are so creative left to their own devising!

Thanks for the kind words. I lived in Africa for a long time and the kids in my village made cars out of old cans and then somehow figured out how to make them roll down any incline. Amazing to watch them create these magical machines. When it was all said and done, the goal was the same; watching stuff move.

Kids designed their own tracks, even building tunnels. Love your blog! Thanks.
