Popular Post FDPiper Posted February 3, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted February 3, 2022 Occasionally we have children visit our home. We like to have things for them to play with and make their visit fun. I keep a box of building blocks made from scrap 2x4's (they are such a big hit & a favorite with the kids), a small home made cradle and a doll my daughter helped me pick our that is young child safe, lots of Fisher Price, and games and puzzles. Some of the toys are just imagination toys from my scrap wood bin. little wood cars, airplanes, turned tops, etc. These are a couple I made one morning when I was feeling lazy and had a hard time being productive. jollyred, frankorona, Charlie E and 15 others 18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
preprius Posted February 3, 2022 Report Share Posted February 3, 2022 Can I suggest to change the "lazy" to creative? Also note that you were productive. It is important to mental well being to take a break of normal work. Do something different. You might find that some of those might lead to more customers. Or bettet yet teaching the same kids later about scrollsawing. My favorite is the helicopter. meflick and FDPiper 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
preprius Posted February 3, 2022 Report Share Posted February 3, 2022 This brings up a memory of a toy I made out of a metal bandaid container. 1983. The flip top ones. I put 5 push buttons on top. A 9v battery inside. Small circuit (555 timer) that generated tones to a speaker also in the box. My toddler liked that toy for a few years. Stupid little idea did good. Oops I am telling old stories again. Am I getting old? FDPiper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
