History Pockets: Moving West Part 4
In the previous entry about Moving West, I shared about our last history group time together at a nature center. I know that we will be riding this time period of history for quite some time! Anyway, I wanted to continue sharing our projects and adventures we've had along the way.
One of the things we did was make cute wood models from Nature's Workshop Plus!
We made the incredibly cute covered wagon and the fort. We also have the log cabins but haven't made them yet. These awesome kits are inexpensive ($4.50 or $4.00 with purchase of 5 or more) and require wood glue and happy kids!
We placed a piece of wax paper on the table for each kid to work on so all that glue didn't stick to the table and other things.

Forming the box for the wagon.

DD9 with her wheels on the wagon!

DD5 holding the "tongue" of the wagon in place.

Cute wagon all done!

DS7 making his fort.

A steady hand and perfect amount of glue is helpful!

Isn't that cute!?! We had a really fun time making these simple projects and you can too!

My kids would love to build any of those things they have on their site.
