Aiden the Inventor

This is a little post about Aiden, who as of late has become quite the inventor! He is so bright for his age, always trying to figure out how things work and what he might be able to improve upon. Just recently he has started "inventing" things in his head, and I get to hear all about his amazing inventions. I want to share some of the ones I am most impressed with, because this kid is pretty smart! (undoubtedly, he gets this side of himself from Chuck!)

Note: these are direct quotes, straight from the inventor himself!

Movie Redbox Robot Vehicle: put a book inside a Redbox machine, and it shows you the movie so you don't have to read the book! It has treads too so it can move around and go anywhere you want it to!
>> I love this one. It would be pretty awesome though, wouldn't it? Stick any book into the machine and it would show you the movie. Neat idea:)

Sticky Bug Trap: put bubble solution on your steps where the ants like to be. Then you put little pieces of rice krispy treats all over the bubble solution. The ants come to eat the treats and get stuck in the bubble solution, and then you don't have any more ants!
>> Can you tell we have a huge ant problem? Lol. I love how he thought of a sticky liquid AND a sticky food. Brilliant!

Talking Bandaids: You could take a character bandaid, like Toy Story 3, and put a button inside of the bandaid, so that if you bumped your knee when you had the bandaid on, the character would talk to you!
>> I liked the idea behind this one--kids would love the gimmick I think! Smart kid, this one:)

These are just a few of the, no joke, ten to twenty inventions Aiden comes up with daily. Most of them have something to do with one thing transforming into another (big into Transformers here these days as well), but I love seeing his little wheels turning. He reminds me very much of his Daddy!
