projects for school

[linderlizzie]

Do you make stuff for your kids to take to school when they're supposed to do a project?

My dad made me a sophisticated periscope out of wood and mirrors for me when I was in grade school. I didn't ask him; he just did.  I wish I still had it. It was very cool.

It has been so long since my daughter was in grade school that I don't remember helping her with school projects.  I'm sure that I did.

That’s such a sweet memory!
I think a lot of us grew up with parents who secretly loved jumping into our school projects. Sometimes the “kid project” mysteriously turned into a full-blown parent masterpiece. Your periscope story made me smile — those little inventions stay with us.
