Woodworking Set Up Kit

This woodworking set up kit contains a range of tools as well as wood fixings and eye protective glasses for safety.  It has been put together based on our experience of working with tools, children and wood and is designed for at least one adult working with up to four children.  Providing real tools and training in using them safely gives children a sense of purpose and agency whilst letting their creativity develop.

Woodworking with Early Years and older children can provide ‘a truly unique and profound experience’ (Pete Moorhouse) especially when children are allowed to be creative and self motivated.  Providing opportunities for working with wood encourages the development of creativity, maths, science and language skills as well as building self-esteem and confidence.

• 1 x General Carpentry Pull Saw
• 1 x Japanese Pull Saw 150mm
• 4 x 8oz Stubby Ball Pein Hammer
