Here’s a fun project you can do during the family MAKEcation (or vacation, for that matter): create a chest-camera rig so you can spin your kids around and take photos of them in flight. (Maybe if you get them super dizzy, they’ll forget the fact that you’re not taking them off the family compound this summer.)
