Hello again from my ongoing attempt to be the Best Dad on the Internet! This project did not slip off my radar in the weeks since our last update – but it did slip off my online to-do list, which is worse. But good news: it’s back on there and I’m going to get you more videos to enjoy with the young people in your life in the weeks to come.
This cake is not a lie
This week’s videos are (very) loosely themed around desserts – fitting that we’re all coming down from the Halloween sugar rush. So here’s a video about cakes! My kids were fascinated by this stop-motion movie about what marble cakes look like as you slice them and devour them. It’s not giving anything away to say they look trippy:
[Kevin Parry]Pig, meet cookie
This pig is sleeping. But there is a cookie near its nose! You might say the cookie wins the exchange, but you might also say the pig wins.
[Prissy and Bomber]And now, doughnuts… of a sort
Ok, this is not a set of the doughnuts you eat, but it is a pretty wild set of the doughnuts a car can make under the right circumstances… which apparently include a massive chain reaction contraption, paintballs and something called a knifedrone (!)
[Driving Line]Honey, it’s a Lego beehive
Technically there’s no candy or pastry in this video either, but it’s a video of a rotating beehive made entirely of Legos, and that seems pretty sweet to me.
[Nasa105]And this is where the theme for the week completely breaks down
Nothing to do with sweets whatsoever here. But it’s a homemade remote control lawnmower, and that has to count for something.
[Mr. NK]Hope you enjoy and share this week’s videos!
