When you think about building custom cars, you think of experts working with gears, grills and grease. But with Clothespin Cars all it takes is two little hands and our custom-made parts. And a tank full of imagination. These cars are actually three brightly coloured, old-fashioned clothespins, rolling on specially designed axles and wheels. They fit together without glue so assembly is a snap. Junior automotive designers can add their choice of cardboard punch-outs and decals to make a racecar, a fire truck, a hot rod, a bus, a police car... whatever they feel like driving today. The book itself has super-clear car-assembly instructions, along with ideas for play. There are even some props to cut out and tape together, such as city buildings, a petrol station and traffic signs. It's enough to get any kid's motor racing.
