Wood Building with Daddy

Grant had been begging to get into Levi's stash of wood scraps to do some building! It was finally decent enough outside and we had a free weekend morning, so these fellas pulled out the wood and the power tools and got busy. Levi told them they could build whatever they wanted. My boys, being two very different creatures, went about this concept very differently! Grant dove in, just cutting and hammering and just going with it. Wyatt had to sit back and ponder what to make, how to make it. It was almost too open-ended for him that he was overwhelmed!! Once he got his idea, he went with it, but it definitely was harder for him than it was for Grant. Wyatt definitely had a picture in his head of what he wanted to build but had NO idea how to make that a reality! Grant didn't have a picture in his head, so he just built for the sake of building! But each fella came out with a very personal creation of their very own!!! And maybe a small affection for power tools!





Wyatt built a shelf for the Lego room to hold his creations, and Grant built...um...I think its a plane?
