I've been nagging my parents to get me a PS3, and I think I've convinced them to get me one just because of THIS game. I think the music will drive my parents nuts. Also other games that have caught my eye are Home and Ratchet and Clank Future. Watch the video. Now.

Club Penguin
Club Penguin is a great online game for kids. Create a penguin, and join an ever- expanding online game. You have the ability to chat, make friends, use emotes (emoticons) and throw a snowball. The chat is filtered so everything you say can be traced and stopped if it is rude. Also if you are especially mean or rude you will get your account banned.
When you join you will be teleported into the world. At first you won't be able to get clothes. To get clothes and furniture you need to become a member. As a non-member you are only able to buy colours, get free items, buy backgrounds and get collectable pins. But as a member, you are able to buy clothes, get furniture for your igloo, attend special parties, and lots more.
Every penguin has their own igloo. As a non-member you can't do much to it , but as a member, you can buy loads of cool furniture for it. You can even change the style of your igloo. You start off with a small one-room igloo, but can expand it to a split-level igloo, a bamboo hut or even a ice castle. Also, if you purchase a stereo or jukebox, you can play music in your igloo! To get to your igloo, press the button looking like a house in the toolbar at the bottom of the screen.
You can also buy pets for your penguins called Puffles. There are loads of Puffle colours to choose from. Puffles are available in blue, red, pink, black, green and red. And that's not all. Non-members can adopt Puffles too! Unfortunately non-members are only available to red and blue Puffles, but members can adopt every colour. Members can even buy special Puffle furniture to put in your igloo! The Pet Shop can be found in the Plaza.
Look out for secret rooms and collectibles in Club Penguin. You can find secret rooms hidden on the map, and find special Pins for your Player Card. Pins are little icons which you can put in the top left corner of your Player Card. To access your Player Card, click the star in your toolbar.
Every month there is a special party in Club Penguin. Usually they happen all across Club Penguin! Loads of rooms are decorated, and free items come out. Be sure to check the secret rooms, there are usually decorations in there too. Here are some parties Club Penguin has had:
Colour Party, Summer Party, Halloween Party, Western Party, April Fools Day Party, Sport Party, Water Party and One Year Anniversary Party. You can also hold parties in your igloo. These pictures are all from the Water Party.
You can also become a Tour Guide or Secret Agent. To become a Tour Guide, your penguin must be 45 days old or more, and to become an Agent, you must be 30 days old or more. To be a Tour Guide, go to the Ski Village and click on the Tour Guiding booth and take the test. If you pass, you get a Tour Guiding hat and can give tours to other penguins. To be an Agent, click the 'M' on the top-right corner of the screen. Then click 'Become a Secret Agent' and take the test. If you pass and are accepted, you get the Spy Phone, and can go to the Secret Agent Headquarters. You can do loads of stuff at HQ, like teleport to other rooms and take on special missions.
Finally, every 2 months a pirate called Rockhopper comes to Club Penguin, giving out free items. He can also be seen waddling around the servers from time to time. If you meet him, he can give you a special free eye-patch. Here's a hint on finding him: he's usually on less crowded servers.
I hope you join Club Penguin too, and enjoy it as much as I do.
Until then... Waddle On! :))

Stop Motion animation
This is a stop motion animation I made with my Dad. It was the first one I made, and one of my favourites. I did it using iStopMotion from Boinx, and you get a 30 day trial period to use it. You then have to buy the product. But it's fair game; you pay money, but you can make fantastic stop motion videos.

Wooden models
Pictures of some wooden models I made with Mum and Dad. The car was very complicated, but we only got it from our local pound shop. The house took ages- over a week! The bicycle was the first one I ever did. The plane was actually my Dad's - I 'helped' him with it.
