Building boats with kids

Bømlo Art group just had it´s annual family-day at the culture-house (which just celebrated it´s 10th anniversary this weekend) This year we decided to build boats, and take them for a “swim” at the beach the next day.

Martha is in charge, sawing wooden pieces for the kids, who use a hammer to nail it together. Some of them can do it themselves, some need help from a parent or grandparent.

These two boys are eager in the process, hammering and painting. Creating is fun!

Of course, you don´t really need water to tag a boat along after you… 😉

Today, we invited the kids and parents to the beach where they could play with the boats in the “natural” habitat. I think several of the boats had little crabs as crew and captain 😀
