Easy Wood Carving for Children: Fun Whittling Projects for Adventurous Kids

Woodcarving is an easy to learn and fun hobby for adventurous children and their parents.

This bright and interesting introduction, from the author of Snitte: The Danish Art of Whittling, includes more than fifty activities at levels for beginners and experienced whittlers. Each project includes easy-to-follow instructions, illustrations, and diagrams, as well as inspiring full-color photographs.

Along with their parents, children can craft a tumbling tower game, a toy racing car, a dolphin necklace, or even a handy coat hook!

Included is a section on practical steps to get started and advice on knife safety with children.
