My 12-year old grandson just visited me for a week...first time solo, without his parents. I bought some fireworks (mortars) from another state, made a bonfire for a cookout, and shot ‘em off when it got full dark. Took him to the races at a short, high-banked track. Also taught him how to drive my car. I’d appreciate your help in thinking of stuff for next year.

BB gun. Kids have to learn how to hit moving targets when they’re young or they’ll never be any good at it.

You’re off to a wonderful start.

Can you take him fishing; dig the worms and learn how to put them on a hook. Gut the fish....and pan fry them?

I would get him a jack knife; even if his parents won’t let him take it home; leave it at your house and build on those skills each time he comes.

Mumbley-peg. :)
