Tool Time with Cubby: How To Fix a Rocket Ship


First, make sure you have an indulgent grandfather who sends you a real electric screwdriver for Christmas.


Next, make sure your bit is secure.  Oh, and also check with Mommy to make sure you're not going to screw into something that will land you in a timeout.


Here Cubby explains the bit is getting dull from all the fixing.  Noted.  Maybe the next episode will feature "How To Sharpen a Screwdriver Bit."


Now, start screwing.  And don't stop until the continuous whirring of the screwdriver has caused Mommy to start dreaming of the day the battery runs out.  And she hides the charger.

And that's it!  Rocket ship prepared for liftoff, courtesy of Cubby and his screwdriver.

  1. The husband here wanted me to let you know they make plastic chain saws , miniatures of the big ones, they make noise and the chain moves. Beth

  2. My now 16-year-old son had a plastic chainsaw with a moving chain when he was two. He cuddled it and slept with it every night for two years. Any indulgent relative who buys real power tools for a child deserves to raise said child. Or at least pay child's college tuition as penance.

  3. "...from all the fixing." I love the stuff kids say.
