Toy Airplane Making Workshop

Workshop Description

Give your kids an opportunity to explore natural material and construct their own toy! Build your own unique Toy Airplane, using various shapes and sizes of wooden blocks, assorted materials and light hand tools. Recommended age: 8 and above, children 4-7 are welcome and must be accompanied by an adult. All our workshops begin with a safety briefing. (Even for returning students) What to expect: In this workshop, children experience a wood working version of Montessori building blocks. Building blocks are considered the most classic of childhood toys. It is such a successful toy because it allows for self-directed activity, hands-on learning and collaborative play. During this 2 hour workshop, participants will design, plan and build their own toy. The open-ended nature of the sessions permits children to explore their own assumptions, make mistakes and harness their own problem-solving skills. What will I learn: Building blocks improve a child's spatial reasoning skills. During play, children explore how the blocks will fit together to create their design, how they might use the different blocks to represent a part of their toy and develop their motor-skills and coordination. - Safety in the workshop - How to use different hand tools - Sanding techniques - Joining methods Additional details: - A short tea break is provided. - Attire: Please wear closed toe shoes to the venue. - Attire: Comfortable, No loose or flowy clothing. - No use of power tools for the safety of the children. - All personal PPE (personal protective equipment) will be provided *This activity requires a minimum of 4 persons to proceed.
