Making Classic Toys that Teach

LeeValley.com has copies of my book, Making Classic Toys that Teachhttps://www.leevalley.com/en-us/shop/tools/books-and-dvds/75487-making-classic-toys-that-teach?item=49L2743 in stock and ready to ship, even though Amazon only has it at a greatly inflated price.

To get free shipping from Lee Valley you'll need to buy one other small item to push you over their $35.00 threshold. I highly recommend this small whittling knife. 

https://www.leevalley.com/en-us/shop/tools/hand-tools/carving-tools/knives/112439-number-8-german-chip-carving-knife?item=06D0408 It is exactly like the one I used in the book, and that I carried with me to Paris where I whittled spheres on a park bench in the Tuileries. https://en.parisinfo.com/paris-museum-monument/71304/Jardin-des-Tuileries 

Only 23 making days before Christmas, and what could be a better gift to give a small child than one of Frobel's gifts that you made yourself?

Make, fix and create.
