Recommended: Mini Weapons of Mass Destruction

I have already talked about a great Bible that seems to be very attractive to boys (here and here), The Action Bible. And now I present another resource, one that is much less spiritual, but just as engaging.

Mini Weapons of Mass Destruction: Build Implements of Spitball Warfare provides step-by-step instructions to build over two dozen simple (and mostly safe) weapons, like catapults, guns, and crossbows. All you'll need is about $9 for the book, plus some common household and craft items. (And I hope you have better handyman skills than I do. But that would include about 87% of mankind.)

This book will be fun for boys of all ages (even the boys that are Dads now). Definitely worth having.
