Your Wild Books, Wild Projects for Families

Bigger builds, real tools, and the kind of Saturday afternoon that ends with something genuinely made — Wild Projects for Families is the book for families who are ready to go further.

Where the earlier books in the Nature Craft Series use what you find in nature and around the house, Wild Projects for Families brings in real tools and more substantial projects. Bug hotels, tree swings, mud kitchens, damper sticks, charcoal pencils, ring toss games, sandcastles with real ambition, geocaching adventures: these are projects that take an afternoon, require adult involvement, and produce something worth keeping. The book encourages the use of upcycled and second-hand materials, which keeps the cost down and the environmental footprint small. Book 4 in the Nature Craft Series; best paired with the Wild Imagination Book for lighter-touch nature craft on the days between bigger projects.
