Jake has started to pay a bit more interest in what dad does so we are working on a few bushcraft skills.
this is all lead by what he says he wants to learn rather than what I want/think he should learn so it stays fun.
yesterday we did ferro rod with cotton wool balls.
today he announced he wanted to do Bowdrill....
a bit of team effort followed

Good stuff :D I love seeing that lightbulb moment on a child's face, when it all comes together and it works :D

Have you thought of a pump drill for him to use ? I regularly had seven year olds make viable 'coals' using one.
