Angry Birds (Bug edition)

I thought I would show what we did to pass the time during this past winter. I'm sure you are familiar with the angry birds app. We decided to play our own version. We had a bunch of these toy bugs from a game the kids had, so the game morphed into Angry bugs. We experimented with several types of ammo, as well as slingshots. The best indoor ammo we found was pingpong balls... and Benson kindly made us a pretty awesome slingshot. Here are a few pics from the past few months.

Its feeling like spring, so I don't think we'll be playing quite so often, but still wanted to share!!

That's a great idea for kids. If you don't mind me asking, what kind/type of paint did you use?

Its just craft paint... I think its acrylic. I did put a clear layer over the top when I was done. So far we've had more dented ping pongs than chipping...
