Hun Students Continued from Preceding Page

Hun School teacher Mark Niederer, with whom Logan studied woodworking and Sam architectural drawing, has also encouraged the twins, who used the school’s woodworking studio to make some of the toys they donated. In fact, recalled Mr. Leppo, that’s where he found them on the last day of school. “All the other students had gone. Where were Logan and Sam? In the woodshop, still sanding and working. I thought that was impressive,” said their father. “There is a real satisfaction in making something by hand.” Most of the work is done in the family garage, which Logan and Sam have turned into a wood shop. Each toy takes about 5 hours to make. “They have spent hours on this project and it has been an enormous learning experience,” said their father. Knowing that they wanted to encourage others to follow their lead, the brothers

well loved and well read since 1946

created simple designs that are easily understood and replicated. “We have had a good response from the schools we have contacted so far, and we are hopeful that this project is going to grow,” said Logan. “When we return to The Hun School in September, we are going to start a new club — Toys for Smiles — and work with the community service club to raise money for materials.” The boys’ parents have been delighted by the interest their sons’ accomplishments have garnered. “We just got a call from CBS Philadelphia asking to interview them and schools have been reaching out to them. There won’t be any shortage of kids wanting to get involved in this,” said Mr. Leppo. “They work exceptionally well as a team.” According to their father, the brothers have already accomplished a lot in their young lives. “They are good students in school and excellent at hlet ically. But more importantly, they are good kids and that’s exactly what Tamara and I wanted, to raise kids who would be good people.” Seems like we may be hearing more about Logan and Sam Leppo.
