Pinewood Derby and First Grade Concert

Kai and Ben had a good time building his first Pinewood Derby car.  I need to dig up a picture of it, turns out I don’t have one to post.  It had a clone trooper motif and since the kids get to name their cars Kai called it TK421.  He wanted to go with “TK421 Why Aren’t You at Your Post?” but we couldn’t get it to fit on the car so we just went with TK421.  Some readers may get the reference.  He got some respectable times but once his wheels got out of alignment he dropped back to 5th place.   Nora also built a car, “The Flower” and took third place on her track.  The Cub Scout Troop does a good job of making family events where siblings can participate when possible.  She was home sick but Kai took care of her car during her races.

Some video of Kai’s grade 1 concert is below – stay tuned for a post with Nora’s dance recital.   Enjoy!
