FAQs
Our child-sized tools are designed for purpose are weighted and sized for safe and easy use. Stubby hammers are weighted for easier hammering and stubby screwdrivers are perfect for small hands. Sharp saws with fine teeth make cutting wood successful (ensure wood is held still using clamps or a vice). Adding rulers, measuring tapes and carpenters pencils adds numeracy and design elements to a wood-work area. Ensure tools are stored somewhere dry and out of reach when not in use so they don’t rust.
Our woodworking kits come with simple, step-by-step instructions that can followed by children as young as 3 years old (with some supervision and guidance). Look out for video walkthroughs online for a guided experience.
Our kits use soft radiata pine to make nailing and driving in screws easier. Often offcuts of wood donated to early childhood services are too hard or have been treated with chemicals, untreated dry wood is important. Providing children with a variety of shapes and sizes allows children opportunities to use their imagination, be creative and explore design.
We recommend setting up a dedicated space for building so that you can supervise effectively and feel confident children will use the area for its purpose. A woodwork table is ideal with some tool and materials storage closeby.
Woodworking experience always helps but we've designed our kits to be as easy and accessible as possible for both kids and adults. We recommend reading the instructions properly before starting the activities so you and the children have a good understanding of how the kit is built.
I have purchased this several times, both as a resource for a preschool center and for my three of my grandchildren.
Children love exploring and creating through carpentry. Not only do they find it fun and satisfying, they are also learning and strengthening a huge amount of skills. This pack makes carpentry fun, as children find sawing wood into the shape they want really tricky. (Lets face it so do most adults) This pack with has plenty of different shaped wood including circles. The right kind of nails for children to easily hammer in. In this box there is plenty for being able to create several projects.
Children get to experiment with different tools. Learning how to create something in a 3-dimensional way. Learning the skills and attitude needed to see a project from beginning to end. Hand-eye coordination. Spatial awareness. Planning and problem-solving. Observing, predicting and experiment, Cause and effect. Understand length, size, balance and force. Gain increasing control over their bodies and strengthening muscles.
Even 2 and a half year old's have the ability to create with this pack and the older school age child get huge saturations from creating more complicated projects that they then incorporated into their play.
Its a really good idea to be close enough to supervising this activity. Try hard to let the child explore and create in their way, even if they ask for you to do something for them or say they can't, encourage them to give it a go because that's the only way they will strengthen their skills. There isn't a right or wrong way or a right or wrong creation, its more about letting the child experiment, explore, create, invent, strengthen and extend their existing skills.
Yep this is the perfect present for children, and you can buy it several times for the same children because as they grow so will their ability to create.
My two granddaughters and my grandson have enjoyed hours of fun.
Your resources are awesome. We love them
Arrived quickly and good quality materials. A wonderful gift for my nephew.
I bought this for my grandson for Christmas so he hasn't used it yet. It looks great though - hopefully he will get a lot of hours out of making things.
A great product, just right for little creators. The pieces are varied and plentiful. My little builders(3 & 6yrs) love it. The ordering was straightforward and delivery prompt.
