Give your child the gift of a new skill to last a lifetime!
- Building small wood projects can help children develop a sense of accomplishment and boost their confidence as they see their creations take shape!
- Your child will practice following instructions, using basic tools safely and accurately, and apply problem-solving skills to complete a project.
- Woodworking can be a new hobby for your child to explore, helping them discover their interests and passions.
- Woodworking is a hands-on activity that can help children disconnect from technology, reducing their screen time and giving them a break from cell phones and video games.
- By completing a woodworking project, children can develop a sense of pride and ownership over something they have made, and it can be a lasting reminder of their achievements.
