Remote controlled cars

We stopped at a garage sale on the way home from violin lesson this morning. I bought 2 remote controlled cars for a grand total of $4. Simon never had remote-controlled cars as a kid and was thinking of buying one for Sam for Christmas because he was sure Sam will love it! Simon was very excited when he saw the cars. He recharged the batteries, put new AA batteries in and fixed the wheels. All these were done very quickly, much more efficient than, for example, when I asked him to change light bulbs in the house. He was nearly late for his massage because he couldn't wait to try them.

Simon and Lara spent some time outside trying the bigger car in the afternoon (they also played with the smaller car inside). I heard lots of laughter and screaming, they must be having fun. I had to do preparations for some work I had to do at night so I couldn't join in.

Zeb busy chasing the car...


Oh how do we get the car out?


As for Sam, he went outside to watch the remote controlled car after his nap. Was he interested? No, not a bit. I guess he's not getting remote control car for Christmas this year then!
