There is no doubt that the benefits of carpentry in early childhood far outweigh the risks. In fact, woodwork is actually quite a low risk activity when introduced and supervised correctly!

Of course, there may be minor injuries such as banged fingers, splinters or small cuts from time to time. But, it’s all part of the learning process!

Children can be taught to respect the carpentry area and be taught to use tools carefully and appropriately. Children actually feel a real sense of pride and responsibility when trusted to use real tools and their behaviour generally reflects this as they rise to the challenge.

This blog offers some helpful guidelines to follow so you can create a safe and fun woodworking experience with your kids while they learn new skills.
