  • On my Wish List….

    I’m adding this brilliant “mini-bivvi” sized tool box to my wish list for our family…

    Have a look at this! Its from the Play Merrily Toy Shop (run by a fellow home-educating Mum).

    As most kids, ours could always tell the difference between real and pretend tools and always want to get involved with any D.I.Y going on at home. We decided we might as well teach them to use the real ones properly and they now regularly have time with Daddy, wielding some sort of power tool!

    This tool set looks great though. Clearly real tools (with sharp edges and everything!) but in a much more manageable size for smaller hands.Should bring the health and safety risk down a bit!

    I’ll be sending them up to help the shack building team.Might as well get them working.

  • Tinkering School

    We’ve been having lots of discussion about health and safety at the Bivouac.

    We wondered what you thought of the Gever Tulley and his Tinkering School… We love it!
