It coincided with Tom's recent Solar class beautifully. He ripped the box open, looked at the wiring diagram, and had a little solar operated fan working in no time.
It also runs a small radio and a 7watt light. One of the first things he did with the fan was to carry it outside and blow it on the clothes hanging from the clothes line to help them dry.
He likes to have it handy now in case he gets too hot...that kid is always hot!
Reeve also had some lego creations that he wanted me to post...here is his solar electric car...
and a motor boat...
and a little horse and rider...
They love to play with those legos. Always building, tearing down, and re-building.
We had a productive weekend. The snow has melted, the temps are warming, and it was the perfect time to go and clean the yard...before the weeds and haygrass become too overwhelming. How on earth did we accumulate so much stuff?

Gordon: Yes Kyle LOVES to help Reeve...I'd like him to be a bit more independent, but right now Reeve is his leader and he's only too happy to help him out.
Dana: Thanks!Well I'm sure Tom wouldn't mind bidding the job for you, we could come down and thaw out:-).
