Pipecleaner Men

Yesterday was fantastic mainly due to pipe cleaners. I found myself for an hour stuck in a library with eight kids building mini catapults out of popsicle sticks. Of course, with every group there is that one kid who doesn't want to be engaged. That is until the pipe cleaners come out. After about five minutes almost every catapult had an opperator or object to launch. (Depending on how the student decided to use their pipe cleaner man.) So, there I was "enriching" students lives by launching objects across a school library. I knew that engineering degree would be useful someday...
