| Just a simple building |
We really like Keva Planks in this house. Kevas are American made, hardwood planks that can be stacked a number of ways. They are excellent for teaching small motor control, balance, and patience (both in building and toward your little brother when he knocks down your patiently built structure).

| Oh no - is that smoke pouring from the building??? |
This week we added another element to our Keva play � small explosives! We have a few fireworks left from July of last year just for occasions such as today. I�m pretty sure Kirk came up with the idea today, but I don�t think there was any argument when he suggested they blow up a Keva building.

| Complete destruction... |
The result was so incredible that I had to attempt to get it on camera. The force blew Keva�s 12 feet from the building site! I never could catch the moment of explosion, but you can see in these photos the complete destruction of the tiny building.
 |
| It's blurry, but ths is in the midst of the explostion - Keva pieces flew everywhere! |
Larger buildings did not explode with the same impact � which was a little disappointing, but as you can see - the open structure allowed the force to dissipate without complete destruction. Amazingly enough, no Keva�s (or kids) were harmed in the process, but fun was had by all!

| The bigger building |

| It fell piece by piece but nothing flew up into the air. |
Is there any purpose at all to this? Probably not - but it was a lot of fun!

Wow, that looks like fun! I am sure everyone around here would like use some small explosives. Especially DAD!
That looks super fun. I'll have to show my youngsters these building blocks.
