Catapult!


It's the end of summer. It's hot. The great outdoors are sounding less appealing, but you don't want your kid lying around the house like a lox, staring at the tube.

Here's a project that'll keep both of you busy for at least an afternoon. Meet the Catapult construction kit. This medieval weapon of choice just needs glue, scissors and patience. Think of all the fun to be had, safely tucked away in a bedroom, catapulting lego figurines, cat toys, balls of foil, and any other small and relatively harmless object for long distances. Build structures and destroy them. Annihilate whole armies with makeshift cannonballs. And accept the fact that sometimes playtime is a violent, yet satisfying business.

Find this weapon of mice destruction at www.uncommongoods.com. And remember: school starts soon.
