Crossbow making competition
Posted on | August 7, 2009 | No Comments
My brother has three children-two sons and a daughter and all three are always full of activities. Both my children were quite thrilled when they came to know that their cousins were visiting for a week and asked me to get them something fun to do. I looked for a lot of do it yourself projects that would have helped them get rid of the boredom and I told them many choices but they were not really enthusiastic about it. Then finally I came up with a good idea. I told them that I was going to teach them to make a crossbow and would hold a competition and judge them based on which one looks and functions the best.
All five children loved the idea and were very intent. My wife thought that any one of the three boys would win but she was sure that our daughter and my brother’s daughter would give the guys a run for their money. I saw the kids practicing hard and I wanted to know the result too. After the competition, we were all surprised because the best crossbow belonged to my brother’s daughter and it functioned beautifully. I also looked good which was the icing in the cake.
