Cub Scouts and Woodworking
This year I was fortunate enough to lead my son’s Bear Den during the month that we built toolboxes using only hand tools. This is a great beginner woodworking project for kids. The boys were all about 8 years old.
This was definitely an interesting and rewarding experience. All of the kids did a great job and had a lot of fun with this project. It took us 2 den meetings for the boys to complete their toolboxes. There were five scouts present and three adults, including myself, the first night we started working on the toolbox. The two other dads and myself kept very busy hopping from one scout to the next, helping or guiding them through each step. (more…)
