This blog is dedicated to sharing the concept that our hands are essential to learning- that we engage the world and its wonders, sensing and creating primarily through the agency of our hands. We abandon our children to education in boredom and intellectual escapism by failing to engage their hands in learning and making.

My Sloyd knives arrived today, and as you can see, they aren't exact duplicates of the knives originally made in Möra. But for $6.25 each plus postage, they will get my students carving up a storm to the same effect as the more expensive Swedish knives. The C.S. Osborne knife is shown at center, with original Möra knives I purchased in Sweden at left and right. Later, you will get to see my students at work. Stick around for the fun.
