Bow and Arrow


Tanner had been turning any kind of toy into a "bow and arrow" to play with when Andrew got the bright idea to make one. He cut off some branches from the bush on the side of our house and I got a string for it. It busted before I could even tie the other side so I spent a half and hour braiding a little rope. It turned out awesome. Andrew had to help Tanner the first few times to do it. But it really works and Tanner can shoot the arrows. We thought it'd be safer to keep the ends pointless, but added feathers to the back and everything.
Turns out it makes a good FHE lesson about when Nephi broke his bow. Andrew acted out hunting and everything. I wish I would have video taped it. :)
