Diaper Box Derby, Here We Come!!!

Emily (http://www.thekentobeans.blogspot.com/), has issued a challenge: make a derby car out of an empty diaper box. Here we go!

Here I am preparing the box with some help from my technical advisor, Violet.



Amedeo doesn't like the looks of the crew...they don't look very competent.


Amedeo tries to convince Violet to join him as his copilot, with little success.

A good view of the rocket thrusters...imported from Fiji.


This derby model has a state of the art control panel.

It's hard work being a derby champ...

Thanks for the suggestion, Emily...I had a good time! (And Pietro spent 20 minutes playing with the box too!)
