So you know what that means...lot's of cool projects and lot's of prizes! This blog is just for kids...games, toys or crafts for them to make! Since my kids are grown, I had a hard time with this challange. Until I saw Lisa's at I'm a Bug Junkie barn explosion box! As soon as I saw it, I knew I was making a circus! Why a circus? Not really sure, considering I'm not that crazy about clowns! I think they're kind of creepy!

You have totally "blown" me away (ha! ha!) with your explosion box and the theme. I have never made one of these and am completely impressed. I, however, am a wee bit on the slow side of life and would need step-by-step directions or a video. I'm a lot of work. But, once I get it, I've got it! Thanks for sharing!
