Nate has been keeping busy with some building projects that he got for Christmas, and here are some of the results...
He has a lego kit with a small motor, and instructions to build all sorts of different things. This is the one he chose first... a working crane that has managed to lift all sorts of things around the house. But he thinks he needs a stronger motor.

He has also been doing some excavating... here he is with T. Rex and Triceratops skulls that he had to excavate out of "rock". He has a blast with this kind of thing, and is pretty sure he's going to be a paleontologist when he grows up.
He and I also put together this robot which has a working motor and actually walks. This was a little tougher and required some more parental help. He then decided to paint it some cool colors.
Our cats don't like this project quite so much.

Can you get him to build me a robot that will do all of my laundry and house work? That would be great! (I know, I most likely have to wait a few years while he gets through gradeschool..........)
Pretty soon!
