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.

no place like home
In Newsweek Magazine there is an article about the "new localism", No Place Like Home. People, in the face of recession are settling in, in ways that were not anticipated. (Provided of course, that they are lucky enough to still have their homes). It could be a very good thing if people were not just to settle in, but to begin making things and sharing hands-on creativity and learning with their kids. Keep your fingers crossed.
