Well it finally happened. Mitch got to use power tools with one of his girls. Last week Kiersten came home with an assignment. They needed to create something using simple machines that would be useful in the home. She floated a few ideas around and then we decided to turn to Pinterest. We looked at lots of ideas. I thought we were set on an Archimedes screw...you'll have to google it, and then she jumped tracks and was determined to make a nutcracker. She and Dad looked at the webpage and went to Rural King. They got home and an hour later we had a functional, actual nutcracker. She was hands on. Drilling holes, tightening nuts and bolts. It was absolutely her project. This kid definitely has a thurst for knowledge.
