Description
Boys' Play - A Great Activity Book for Children by Lillian Egholm.
This is the book for you who want your children to have the same great experiences you had growing up.
Back when you had dirty knees, your head full of plans, and definitely no time to come inside for dinner.
This book is full of inspiring activities, far away from TV, computer, iPhone, iPad. When was the last time your children, for example, built a knight’s castle or dressed up and got ready for a big pirate raid? I hope it wasn’t too long ago 😊
No matter what, this book is full of inspiration for fantastic and imaginative play, the kind that we as parents also enjoy spending time on, again and again.
In this book you will find inspiration for:
- Homemade costumes for, for example, fur hunters, pirates, or knights.
- How to build a mini castle, small cars, weapons, and carve figures in wood.
- Building a willow hut, making a tent, or a mini tipi.
- How to make treasures and jewelry from fire-burned beads and metal.
- How about making a hunter’s bag or a pouch?
- Recipes for flatbread and campfire soup.
All done in a way that gives children the chance to make it themselves.
If you, like us, love carving wood, there’s a very good chance you know Frank Egholm.
We have all his books ourselves, and luckily several of them are also here in the shop. Through our interest in Frank’s books, we came across this gem of a book. It is written by Frank’s wife Lillian, and the inspiration comes from very close to home, as they have 5 boys together.
For a long time, it wasn’t possible to buy it, as the copies that were printed were sold out, and we never found it on the used book market despite searching – apparently, it’s a book people kept, and we understand why today.
Fortunately, we managed to get Frank and Lillian to reprint it, so now it’s finally possible to buy it, and we’re happy about that because we give it Our warmest recommendation!
Here you’ll find another great book that suits children who love working with wood – The Children’s Carving Book
