About Forest Craft
Ready to unlock the magic of the woods with your kids? Forest Craft isn’t just a book; it’s an invitation to adventure! Imagine little hands safely guided by yours, transforming twigs and branches into treasures that spark hours of imaginative play. Richard Irvine, a true champion of outdoor exploration, gently leads you and your children on a journey to discover the wonders of your local trees – their unique personalities and the secrets they hold for crafting.
Get ready to embark on exciting projects like:
- Making your own buzzing kazoo and enchanting elder wand!
- Building miniature furniture for tiny woodland creatures.
- Crafting a duck call to bring the forest to life and rhythm sticks for joyful music-making.
Inside, you’ll find a friendly, no-nonsense guide to the essential tools and timbers, clearly showing you what works best for beginners (and what to avoid!). Every project unfolds with easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions brought to life with helpful photographs and clever tips. And because safety always comes first, a dedicated chapter and gentle reminders throughout ensure worry-free fun under your watchful eye.
Whether you’re a forest school teacher seeking inspiring activities or a family yearning for meaningful outdoor experiences, Forest Craft is a timeless resource you’ll reach for season after season, year after year. These aren’t just crafts; they’re skills to be cherished, traditions to be embraced, and memories waiting to be made and passed down through generations.
