I bought a small table that needed to be assembled so I asked one
of our grandparents if he would do it for me.
It didn’t take long for the children to join in the building.
Discovering each part and tool. Wondering how does it fit together?
Having the opportunity to figure it out themselves.
Using their strength as well as their problem solving skills.
Watching as each piece fit together matching the plans that were provided.
Taking turns, working on precision and accuracy, and learning about new tools. I need to find more projects like this.
Sounds like a win-win for everyone involved.
