Looks a lot more interesting than a keyboard and mouse, doesn't it? and it seems to me it could introduce some skills to children for later in life, like the ability to do things other than sit before a screen.
It looks like this sort of thing would make a good Christmas presents for kids too and something that all dads could get involve with.
It sure looks good to me.
knitting needles and wool, wooden toys and silk scarves. Natural materials dominate the small school’s numerous educational programs, including kindergarten and a Grade 1-2 combined class.
well I'm not too keen on the knitting needles for boys it seems like they have lots of other creative and useful ideas and keeps those little bodies moving and agile, not sedentary which we are all trying to avoid.
What do you think?
U no what techno thinks, don't ya!
