Creating a space for young makers to thrive is one of the most important things a parent or teacher can do for a child. Many children love to make things with their own two hands and this results in many adventures in art projects and different crafts. Woodworking is one such craft, but many struggle to find safe and easy ways for a child to learn this skill. Doug Stowe explains in his book, The Guide to Woodworking with Kids, that equipping children with the proper tools, instruction and supervision makes woodworking the perfect activity to cultivate creativity and hands-on skills in any child at any age.
The book begins with basic instructions on how to go about making woodworking a fun and safe environment for kids. He gives plenty of advice relating to what tools and supplies the reader needs to have on hand before starting any project. The main portions of the book are instructions on how to build different projects, from lidded boxes to toy trains. All the instructions are clearly written with step by step pictures and a list of supplies needed for each project. This book would be a great choice for families and much of the book could easily be read aloud to kids of any age. This book is available to order through PINES.
