3rd and 4th grade became Santa's elves in their tinkering of toys and creations. Take 2 on the igloo structure was a success and far more sturdy without an unstable roof. They also made a grapple, robot, and bicycle of sorts! It is amazing watching the imagination of a child bring something to life!
