Twenty years ago, when my daughter was 5, she became aware of fireworks and asked me if we had any.
I was living in NJ where even sparklers were outlawed, BUT I was into black powder firearms and had about 6 pounds of the stuff on hand.
I discovered some old hollow plastic Alphabet Blocks in the basement, we punched a hole in them, filled them with black powder, added about 12" of cherrybomb fuse (available at Dixie Gunworks" and sealed them with silicon rubber cement.
We had a ball....Of course if we were to do that today I'd be arrested on possessing terrorist paraphenalia.
How life has changed.
Regards
Joe
