There are many projects in this book that are within the skills of my 10 year old (with a bit of guidance), and many more that will challenge him to improve his skills in measuring, marking out, following plans and instructions, and developing creative solutions when either the tools or the suggested materials do not coincide with what we have on hand. The projects require a basic tool kit and the book provides nice pointers on how to use them. A well done book.
I bought this book for my brain injured patients, good directions, good pictures, and showing what hand tools to use instead of the power tools, which some of patients are not yet ready for. Plus doing it by hand is a great way to exercise the body and the mind and create something as well.
Great book for beginners. Two grandsons easily made the tool boxes and are delighted with the results.
Very informative. Explains a lot of the basics and then has several "do-able" projects for young kids and some more in-depth ones for later. 11 year old loves it!
Love the book as it has many ideas for projects and crafts for children, at all age and skill levels.
