You should see the volcano project, the kid used an actual volcano!

That one is “art”, not science!

Soon thereafter an Orange Fat Shaman denied it as science fair but declared it to be a hoax. The fire was used to destroy every project that any deep cave dweller decided would corrupt the clan.

I’d give them all blue ribbons!

The “fire” thing really caught on.

Where are the new home appliances like the Baby Elephant Vacuum Cleaner and Pelican Washing Machine?

One of the kids was going to show his invention of the record player, but unfortunately, the bird flew away.

Since I left my former job and went to work for Autocorrect, it’s been tough, but now I’m okay with the fact that my former employer fried me for no raisin!

Your buddy inside Autocorrect

They all look great but one’s on FIRE!

I like how they are all built on Stonehenge.

I LOVE it!!!

I should be a tossup between fire and wheel, but some kid came in at the last minute with a baking soda volcano.

What happened while creating the wheel? How did he lose an eye? Obviously didn’t have good counseling.

Not much different from my project In 9th grade.

Ooooh look, a rolling stone! LOL

Art is in the eye of the beholder. How he ever got in the eye I’ll never know.

Fire. The wheel. An arrow. I would be the kid at the next table who invented gum.

Stiff competition!

Before elementary school, there was rudimentary school.

Too bad it’s pre-Bleeb. I know he would have enjoyed the clothing! :)

By the look of these folks, I would guess that inbreeding has already been invented ;)

The boy with the eyepatch is Firestone?
