Pinewood Derby

Last year Atticus joined Cub Scouts, but we were still in the midst of the pandemic and events were rather scarce. The annual Pinewood Derby was even over Zoom. 

But this year things are mostly back to normal, and the derby was held this weekend in person. Good mom that I am, I took no photos. But Atticus had fun and was more successful than last year, when he decorated his car with markers and put no thought into the engineering.

This year he and Paul watched YouTube videos and designed a slick black vehicle that came in first on several heats. He ended up second fastest among the second graders. A great finish!
