Boat Building

IMG_7274.JPGWe headed to a lake in the forest to make our own boat builders yard, we made a sign and pitched up our tent, took a bag of off cut wood that that we got from the local sawmill for free and a bag if mixed used nails from the builders yard for £1.50, a hammer, some material for our sail (an old pillow case), some string, scissors and a staple gun to attach our sail. (You could just use nails).
The kids hammered and banged and we set sail to our boats on the lake.

Here’s how we got on..
