The kids participated in the NAWIC Block Kids competition on Saturday. It is basically a Lego building contest. They are given 100 blocks and 1 hour to build something. They are competing against kids in their own grades. Amelia built a clock tower, Landin built the Twin Towers, and Riley built a robot. Riley won 1st place for his grade and the grand prize overall! He won a $100 savings bond, and he was very excited! It was the last year he was eligible, so it made it that much better. I have to say that I was so proud of Amelia and Landin, too. They were such good sports about the whole thing. They clapped and cheered for their friends that won, and they were even more excited for Riley.
