Making Woodland Crafts
Using Green Sticks, Rods, Poles, Beads and String
by Patrick Harrison
Through a series of visually stunning hand-drawn illustrations, Making Woodland Crafts guides the reader on a productive journey through the woods. It provides the basic knowledge and skills to complete a range of both simple and more advanced craft projects, from functional structures to creative outdoor play forms. You will learn to choose and work your wood effectively, use simple tools, tie knots and develop your own designs. Projects include building masks and puppets, night torches, staffs, arrows, jewellery, ladders, shelters and chairs for stargazing.
This book is the perfect companion for any family outdoor day, a joyful introduction to the crafts available in any piece of woodland. It is guaranteed to get children (and their parents, siblings, grandparents…) out and about and enjoying nature.
Patrick Harrison is an experienced outdoor learning educator and trainer of Forest School Leaders. This book developed from working and playing with both adults and children in the woodlands for years.

Such a sweet toy that will grow with my daughter and be played with for years to come. She is 17 months and loves rolling it along our floorboards as well as discovering different little things we have hidden in the back of the truck. It’s so well made and is lovely to the touch.
We had this ball bought as a present for our dog when she was being looked after by friends. It has become her absolute favourite and very popular by lots of other dogs we encounter.
We also live near the beach so it really helps that it floats too. We use it almost daily and have done for the past 6 months. So needless to say we are very satisfied with the product, tempted to buy a second just Incase (god forbid) we lost this precious favourite. It also fits in the ball thrower sticks which has saved me since being heavily pregnant.
It’s not easy to snag these pieces! Slowly adding to my collection. Love browsing Dragonfly Toys and seeing what they on available on my wishlist. Ostheimer is one of most favourite collection!
The main lesson book is of great quality, and it has a bright colour cover the paper and inside is thick and really nice quality and has good texture and I recommend these main lesson books to everybody
I purchased the Grapat Nins Carla for my grand daughters first birthday, its such a beautifully crafted set and so many ways to play, I know she will enjoy for many years to come.
