Invention Camp

This past week Erin, Ana and Waylon attended "Invention Camp". Ana was very excited about going to camp, but when we drove up to the South Bosque Elementary School, she said, "What are we doing here, camp is suppose to be outside." That worried me that she wasn't going to like Invention camp, but luckily when I picked her up at the end of the day, she said it was fun -- "it wasn't like school, it was like camp". At invention camp they learned about "building rockets for going to Mars", "building a city free of pollution, a city with clean water and clean landfills", and about inventing robots. They also had fun. Below is a picture of the three on "Wild hair day". Waylon loved his mohawk.
THis is a picture of Ana on "Crazy Clothes Day". She picked out the outfit herself. As you can see it was "crazy that nothing matched".

This is a picture of Ana's first robot -- she named it Walli (it does sort of look like the robot on the movie) She made this robot for herself. I thought she did a great job deciding to use the speakers as the eyes.

THis is a picture of Wyie. She made this robot for Ava and Ali. Her robot doesn't do anything -- but she had lots of fun tearing apart the DVD players and radio to make them and deciding what she would use for the arms, legs, and eyes, etc.
