A great craft for boys...

I'm always on the hunt for something fun I can do with my 9 year old son. Something that holds his interest as well as mine.
I recently found an exciting project: Blinky Bugs! These clever little guys are made of simple componants and when you bop their antenae, their eyes blink.


Everything comes in a kit you can purchase online for $14.00


Pipe cleaners, battery, wire, and simple electrode eyes.


The only things you have to provide are scissors, needle nose pliers and scotch tape.


My son thought they were totally cool. We spent a good hour working side by side on this project and I thought THAT was totally cool.

  1. Love this idea. I must get some for my son.
    We need to get the pups together soon.
