Tamar, I love how you marked the sections/projects within the video timeline and scrubber. These details don't go unnoticed and are appreciated! Thank you!
You are a great mum for involving your kids in this kind of activity. I know they are going to remember these moments for the rest of their lives. My son and I had a great time with my 7 year old granddaughter when we were making her a big toybox to store all her soft toys - teddy bears etc. We were in his workshop sanding and cutting and painting, and she was in her pretty pink princess tutu helping us. If her mother had known (she was out for the day) she would have had a blue fit!! She would have exploded if she'd been able to see her daughter playing in the piles of sawdust on the floor, or using the drill to make holes in the box for the handles, or using our orbital sander, all while wearing her pretty pink princess dress. But my granddaughter just loved the afternoon.
I'm 22 and I can't believe the enlightenment in your eyes. You really enjoy this and the time spent with your kids. Reminds me of my mom.. I need to make her something. Probably very badly like a little kid but still, thanks for sharing!
Thanks! You have just won me so many points with the wife. We have a week off together and I suggested making the mobile phone speaker together for her 86 year old grandmother. She's very excited.
What a great mom! Reminds me the projects my mom and I did. I still have them in my office at 67 years old. My girls are older but once life becomes normal again I will start a project with my granddaughter. Love your channel, keep up the good work.
These are great ideas. Annnnd, while watching the speaker contraption build, I immediately realized this is something I can build with both of my kids to hold their MP3 players when they are listening to music at night in their rooms. Specifically when they are going to bed and do not want to wear headphones. BRILLIANT!
These are wonderful. I'm an elementary school music teacher and woodworker, and my principal has been asking me about doing woodworking classes, but I couldn't conceive of how to even approach it. These are great ideas!
Your kids have one of the best teachers math,science,shop....very cool video,a way to make learning fun,if it is fun,they will learn....well done Tamar You get hundreds of gold stars....
Awesome! As a high school shop teacher, I wholeheartedly agree with your comments about some kids are able to be trusted to use machines before other kids.
When I was in Junior High, we had back-to-back woods/metals (honestly, I don't remember if it was 7th or 8th grade) and learned how to make a number of different things. In woodworking, I made a small pedestal table (among several projects) using a tablesaw, bandsaw, table router, jig saw, lathe (made our own bit), belt sander, and a torch. I was 12 or 13. In metalsI still have all my digits, my eyesight, hearing and a level of confidence strong enough that I've been able to figure out how to fix an improve a number of things around the house over the years. In metals, we used a forge to temper steel, soldering iron, grinders, sanders, a sheet metal brake, drill press, and rivets to make hammers, screw drivers, a circuit tester, and other projects. I thought everyone had the same experiences, until I grew up and had kids of my own. Now, I wonder about the wisdom of protecting them from learning? We didn't use any power hand tools (which makes sense), but we definitely did all the work ourselves. I can't tell you how fortunate I feel to have learned what I did when I did because along with the obvious skills (I didn't say much of my work showed any kind of genius) I learned how to think about how things are made and the appreciate the level of ability masters bring to their work. And not just in the trades. These lessons (along with music and performance) taught me to appreciate the dedication and effort that goes into the development of expertise in all fields -- something I don't think a lot of adults appreciate. This mistaken notion that everything is easy and anyone can do it at the same level makes us impatient and unforgiving in our dealings with other people in all interactions when expectations exceed understanding. We built stuff. We played music and marched in a junior parade. The kids in my neighborhood built go-carts out of doors and old lawn mower wheels, we built forts out of cast off lumber, caught turtles and swam in ponds in the summer that we used for hockey games in the winter. It was very much like the movie Stand By Me (and High School was Fast Times at Ridgemont High) and I wouldn't trade it for the world. Trust your kids. Let them learn and discover. It'll make them better people, more tolerant, more collaborative, more creative, and able to see the effort and value in others. Sheltering them and doing all the hard, dangerous stuff for them only leaves them with the expectation that that is how it will always be and far from inspiring them to figure stuff out for themselves, it will leave them at the mercy of others doing for them in all things. If you don't learn in Junior High, when is a good time to learn? Kids can absorb information and experience faster and more meaningfully than adults. Don't pass up the opportunity to allow them to do so. If you have table tools and your shop is set up for safety, I don't understand why you
These projects are brilliant, and your kids’ creativity is so inspiring! That foot toothbrush holder made me smile so very much 😁 I feel like kids are so good at reminding us of one of my favorite aphorisms: “perfection is the enemy of getting shit done”! Also, often imperfect but wonderfully imaginative things live in our hearts so strongly.
These are so awesome! My son was pumped about that piggy bank and speaker, how cool! Thanks for sharing. Would LOVE to see more videos like this, maybe with simpler tools?
Dowels are great for kids to work with. I'd recommend making a v-block and clamping them in that when cutting to length. This helps stabilize them a bit more than clamping directly to a flat surface. Nice video.
Finally, aomw projects I think I am capable of building(and didn't have to stop the video all the time to understand.) I agree with the others regarding the "great mom" department as well. This summer is probably a toughy for young kids...cheers...rr Normandy, France
Love this. Constantly looking for ideas to make things with my twin grandaughters. Their first project (at 3) was "hammering" in dowels in the outside edge to a circle I cut out, and painting it yellow like the sun, and of course drawing a smile face on it... I think the banana stand may be in their future... :) Keep up the great work!
Have watched many of your videos in past and just found this one today, I was looking for projects to work with the Grandkids and believe that any of these projects will be great. Looking forward to trying them out.. Appreciate you sharing these ideas.
!!GREAT PROJECT!! Sensible suggestions. Wonderful & most importantly FUN!!! FUN is a great teacher that will work miracles that last a lifetime! Willem
You have provided some great ideas. Your presentation is excellent. It is obvious you find great joy with both your family and your exploration of woodworking ideas. Thank you for your efforts to inspire. You make a great teacher. Be safe.
That checkerboard/Backgammon backpack bag is nothing short of genius! I really dug the passive sound amplifiers as well. I’ve been designing (in my head... so daydreaming really) a similar thing for my magnetic phone holder in the car to make the sound more audible.
LOL - now all you need for the next project is a subwoofer made from hardwood scraps! :-) Good stuff. My children are grown, but one of these days, maybe I will have grand kids to share these ideas with. Thumbs up! (And now I feel the need to go find some wood and make a backgammon board.)
I am Brazilian and do not speak English, I am translating through the Google translator. I'm starting to work as a carpenter in my house and I love your work and channel with lots of tips, thanks
This is so awesome. Thank you for making this video! I have a 6 and 4 year-old who both love "helping" with projects around the house and I've been looking for projects exactly like these.
Great ideas to get kids involved in woodwork. Practical tasks using their hands and creativity with and a sense of achievement with their finished project . Can’t get that on the PS4... Keep the projects coming.👍👍
Great ideas Tamar. Getting your kids involved in creative projects is about teaching them invaluable life skills that they will carry with them throughout the life. Awesome.
That dowel making jig was cool, and while looking at these I found another that you cut a piece of square stock and put into a drill jig, then the dowel holes have little teeth to shave off a little wood as you go through the dowel jig. This is a great way to have dowels to cover screw holes and perfectly match the wood. I learned something new today!
Great video!! The only suggestion I have, based on experience with my grand kids, is to build one yourself first. This insures you have everything you need to build it and you know what problems areas there might be.
I don’t have kids but I find this really interesting. I’ve often wondered if the use of touch pads, smart phones and computers will cause problems by the way they unnaturally separate the visual from the tactile. It just seems to me kids need hands on experience with creativity and problem solving. That together with other physical activities like sports or other exercise just seem to me like that would be absolutely essential in developing a practical perspective of the physical world. And of course the time you spend teaching them grows their healthy relationship with you, something that surely will help carry them through life. Also nowadays there seems to be a complete lack of regard for beauty. It looks to me like you’re teaching them art and physics and how they’re inseparable in what is beautiful. And the joy and time and effort in creating something beautiful gives a sense of the value and importance of beauty. I believe our appreciation of beauty in this world gives us a sense of why this world is worth saving as well as giving us a window into the next. But what do I know? I have no kids and no experience in developmental studies. It takes more for something to sound good for it to be true. It just somehow seems intuitive to me.
Great video and great ideas. My kids are older, so they can use the power tools with appropriate supervision and training. I recently made a mobile miter saw stand with my older daughter, which was a lot more rewarding (and easier) than making it myself. I am all on board with including kids (with appropriate safety measures) in your hobby, whatever it may be.
Thank you so much for this video. You are so cool!!! I love your videos. You have wonderful ideas. I have an 11 year old daughter who is aspiring to be a construction worker and wants to join me on my early woodworking journey to start learning her skills. These are great ideas for us to get started. I'm sure she'll love these. Maybe you can make a video series on teaching wood shop skills for different levels geared at kids (since schools no longer offer wood shop). As a woodworking Mama, you would be great for it. I know you are busy and probably have your own agenda on videos to make. It's just a thought. There are a handful of one time videos teaching kids skills, but it would be awesome if someone created a series of videos to teach kid friendly skills so they learn properly and inspire them to join the few of us who have taken up woodworking.
So awesome to hear! That’s awesome that she’s taken an interest in construction! I’m actually not sure I’m qualified to make videos like that. I know my buddy Erik Curtis is a wood shop teacher I’m a middle school and he was thinking about doing a series like that. Check him out. ENcurtis
3x3Custom - Tamar Thank you. I will check him out. By the way, my daughter has told me that the reason she wants to be a construction worker is to be able to eventually build a housing community for homeless people.
Thanks for the video! A couple of years back, I made "insect hotels" with my niece (11yo) and nephew (9yo). I cut out the parts for the outside, but they used cordless drill/driver to put together, and also they sourced the pine cones etc to go inside. It was great fun to do together. Anyway, just another idea!
Really nice projects for kids. Thanks for sharing. I especially like the banana-hanger. I've never seen that before. Now I remember that when I was a kid, bananas in stores were hanging on metal hooks. Now everything is in crates and the bananas get bumped all the time. And at home we keep bananas in a glass bowl. So a banana stand is really a useful thing.
When I was a kid , when I tried making things, I had a small hand saw, coping saw, rasp, files, and such...You can make a lot with that, and all the cuts you did on the bandsaw could be done (just slower) with a hand saw. :)
Looking for cool projects from a variety of creators to feature in a playlist on our channel, and this definitely caught my eye. These are such awesome ideas!
Awesome projects. I remember making a number of small projects in Jr High shop class. One project I like to do with kids is simply a pencil or crayon holder. Even a blocky robots!
I loved that video since it shows me so many ways to spend quality time with my niece and try to develop her interest into my hobby! 😀 can you do some more like these?
Awesome ideas! I started making a wooden robot with my 4-y-o son. He just wants it to be finished now though, so I think I'll be the one to do that! He has his own hand drill, junior hack saw, hammer and screwdrivers, And kids safety glasses are cheap on Amazon!
Thanks! So awesome. It’s so fun to hang with them in the shop. But the younger ones seem to get disinterested pretty quickly. Ha! Quick and simple has been working for me and my kids!
Haha so I'm building a corn hole board for my Brother in law and we had our Grand daughter at the house. She came out to my shop where I was working (shes 9) as i was drilling pocket holes. I needed alot of them so she got to use a cordless drill for the 1st time ever... of corse there was tear out so I got out my Orbital sander and had her clean out the edges of the pocket holes. All total she was out there maybe 20 minutes. When my son got back to pick them up her first words were when can we come back to Grandpas? He laughed and said why? Her response Grampa let's me use power tools! My son says thanks dad now I need to hide my drill... these are great ideas and my grandkids are all phone junkies so will definitely be making the sound amplifiers. Have a great day Tamar.
This is great! If you don't mind I'm going to try and integrate this into my classes. So many kids are interested in woodworking and I've been trying to find things that both parents and kids can do together. Keep up the truly awesome work. 😁
I remember us amplifying music played on a phone through actual brass instruments back in ca 2004. The trombone worked quite well if I remember correctly.
3x3Custom - Tamar Take a few adolescents, at least one phone with music on it, and some brass instruments, and put them together. I can’t remember if we had the trombonist move the slide while amplifying the music through his instrument, and I don’t think any of the ones who played valves instruments tried pushing the valves on ours. Might be a cool experiment to try.
Guys I found a very good website about woodworking that is *TopFineWoodworking. Com* this website contains more then 16000 woodworking plans. Recommended
@@3x3CustomTamar My children are finally at that stage where I can hand them a sanding block and they'll enjoy the work. It's the BEST! A real silver lining to this 2020 summer.
That was awesome 👍👍 my kids love to use the drill and they both helped me build benches for home and for work, they're 3 and 5! My favourite was the speaker, but I really liked the banana hanger too! Cool video 👍👍
Thanks for the great ideas!! My 9yo daughter loves to be in the shop and these are projects I know she will love. One comment, I would have probably swapped acrylic and plywood the rocket ship piggy bank so that you can hang it on a shelf or edge and can still see the fire overhanging, while being able to see the coins inside.
Hans de Groot for sure! Also sometimes I give my kids scraps to whack through the holes just to keep them busy. I tell them it’s for my projects so they think they are helping me. Ha!
New subscriber, and I just wanted to say I really appreciate your content! I've taken away several great ideas for future projects. Keep up the excellent work!
Tamar, I love how you marked the sections/projects within the video timeline and scrubber. These details don't go unnoticed and are appreciated! Thank you!

Fantastic way to give children a love for woodworking! And you know they will pass that along to your grandchildren!
All because of your creativity!

Jeff, take a look at The Teacher's Hand-book of Sloyd by Otto Solomon. It's available for free on Google Books: g.co/kgs/qD7kS9
The acoustic speaker project would be a great way to include elements of both classes!
Totally agree with that! Would be such an awesome school project!

The bag as the board is brilliant! Also, the backgammon board looks like a piece of modern art :)
It totally does! It would look cool just as a design on a bag!
Love the piggy bank! Let's the kids have more ownership of what's being made vs straight assembly. Great video!
Yup! They loved that they were involved in the design of the shape.
As an Architect and perfectionist, Rule #2 is soooooo hard! but the most important for my daughters artistic development and enjoyment!!
Totally agree! It’s hard but you just have to let go!
These are so awesome! My son was pumped about that piggy bank and speaker, how cool! Thanks for sharing. Would LOVE to see more videos like this, maybe with simpler tools?

Btw i had just got a scroll saw.I would definitely recommend getting one.

Haha yup!
@@3x3CustomTamar They also like to use a vacuum cleaner to suck up the sawdust.

I cut out the parts for the outside, but they used cordless drill/driver to put together, and also they sourced the pine cones etc to go inside. It was great fun to do together. Anyway, just another idea!
Sounds cool!
So many good ideas, I only wish I could have given a thumbs for for every one!
Ha! Thanks so much! Appreciate that!
Great, useful, fun, gifts for others… love it!
I love involving my kids in my projects when I can too! Great to see, Tamar! Fun video!
If they had their way, all my projects would look like those toothbrush holders and piggy banks.... rainbow unicorn galaxy everything!! 😂
I have my first kid on the way, looking forward to watching this video again in a few years.
Awesome. Congrats!
Really nice projects for kids. Thanks for sharing. I especially like the banana-hanger. I've never seen that before. Now I remember that when I was a kid, bananas in stores were
hanging on metal hooks. Now everything is in crates and the bananas get bumped all the time. And at home we keep bananas in a glass bowl. So a banana stand is really a useful thing.
Glad you liked them! Yup! We had the same issue. Used to keep them in a bowl and they would bruise easily.
@@3x3CustomTamar The problem is that my to-do list grows more quickly than bamboo.
MY KID WANTED TO MAKE SOMETHING AND THIS VIDEO REALLY HELPED ME
When I was a kid , when I tried making things, I had a small hand saw, coping saw, rasp, files, and such...You can make a lot with that, and all the cuts you did on the bandsaw could be done (just slower) with a hand saw. :)
I make piggy banks as well. Love the ideas you have. I have to try those. The cell phone holders with the funnel and little horn was genius. Thanks
So glad you liked them. Thanks!
I came to find some child appropriate woodworking projects and you have some great ideas. And also my name is Tamar too! Nice to meet you.
Hey Tamar!! Glad you found it!
Great video. My youngest daughter always wants to build things and it's great to see new ideas and others doing the same.
Thanks! Of it were up to them, this is what every video for my channel would look like! Ha
Great fun for kids, thanks for sharing,
Glad you liked it!
YAY
The speaker projects were really cool, good job!
Thanks! Glad you liked them!
Lot's of love from India ❤️❤️❤️
Great ideas and such good tips and reminders along the way! I could use the reminder about it not needing to be perfect myself!
Glad you liked it! Thanks! And yes. I need that reminder for myself too. Ha
I LOVE your ideas, I have two grandsons that will love to try them. Thanks
Awesome! Have fun with them!
Small projects, great big heart. Good on you, girlfriend!
Looking for cool projects from a variety of creators to feature in a playlist on our channel, and this definitely caught my eye. These are such awesome ideas!
Awesome projects. I remember making a number of small projects in Jr High shop class.
One project I like to do with kids is simply a pencil or crayon holder. Even a blocky robots!
Those are always fun!
I loved that video since it shows me so many ways to spend quality time with my niece and try to develop her interest into my hobby! 😀 can you do some more like these?
Awesome to hear! When I think of them, I share them!
Awesome ideas! I started making a wooden robot with my 4-y-o son. He just wants it to be finished now though, so I think I'll be the one to do that! He has his own hand drill, junior hack saw, hammer and screwdrivers, And kids safety glasses are cheap on Amazon!
Thanks! So awesome. It’s so fun to hang with them in the shop. But the younger ones seem to get disinterested pretty quickly. Ha! Quick and simple has been working for me and my kids!
@@3x3CustomTamar yeah, I'll definitely take your tip on preparing everything beforehand so it's more of a construction and painting activity 😊
davedave had to learn that one the hard way. Ha
Haha so I'm building a corn hole board for my Brother in law and we had our Grand daughter at the house. She came out to my shop where I was working (shes 9) as i was drilling pocket holes. I needed alot of them so she got to use a cordless drill for the 1st time ever... of corse there was tear out so I got out my Orbital sander and had her clean out the edges of the pocket holes. All total she was out there maybe 20 minutes. When my son got back to pick them up her first words were when can we come back to Grandpas? He laughed and said why? Her response Grampa let's me use power tools! My son says thanks dad now I need to hide my drill... these are great ideas and my grandkids are all phone junkies so will definitely be making the sound amplifiers. Have a great day Tamar.
Haha! That’s so awesome to hear! My daughter is 8. She LOVES using the drill! It’s so fun for them
Thank you for this. I am trying to get my boys into the shop to make things and needed some simple ideas.
Awesome! We also recently made headphone stands. That was a fun one for them.
This is great! If you don't mind I'm going to try and integrate this into my classes. So many kids are interested in woodworking and I've been trying to find things that both parents and kids can do together. Keep up the truly awesome work. 😁
Please do!
These are fantastic ideas. Thank you for sharing. I’m definitely going to check out the rest of your channel!!
Glad you like them. Hope you enjoy!
These are some fantastic ideas, Tamar! Can't wait to try these out with my 9yo!
Awesome! Glad you like them. Have fun!
Just love the “bugle” speaker. Brilliant video for parents and kids, or in my case grandchildren, thanks a bunch. The pre-prep is a vital point.
Thanks! So glad you liked the projects!
I remember us amplifying music played on a phone through actual brass instruments back in ca 2004. The trombone worked quite well if I remember correctly.
Nillie cool
3x3Custom - Tamar
Take a few adolescents, at least one phone with music on it, and some brass instruments, and put them together.
I can’t remember if we had the trombonist move the slide while amplifying the music through his instrument, and I don’t think any of the ones who played valves instruments tried pushing the valves on ours. Might be a cool experiment to try.
Guys I found a very good website about woodworking that is *TopFineWoodworking. Com* this website contains more then 16000 woodworking plans. Recommended
can I use 3:32, the banana holder design, for my Etsy shop?
I have a special needs child who would love to paint and sand and use Dad's drill. Thanks for the inspiration!
It’s so fun for them!
@@3x3CustomTamar My children are finally at that stage where I can hand them a sanding block and they'll enjoy the work. It's the BEST! A real silver lining to this 2020 summer.
Robert Litman ha! It’s the little things!
That was awesome 👍👍 my kids love to use the drill and they both helped me build benches for home and for work, they're 3 and 5! My favourite was the speaker, but I really liked the banana hanger too! Cool video 👍👍
Awesome! It’s so fun to get them involved. Safely of course! Thanks!
loved the iPhone speaker project; SO cool, and what a fun gift :)
Thanks! They’re so fun
I love this! I love you! I can't wait til the kids come home today from their dads house. Stepdads house is gonna rock this weekend! 😘
Hahah! Nice! Have fun!!
Thanks for the great ideas!! My 9yo daughter loves to be in the shop and these are projects I know she will love.
One comment, I would have probably swapped acrylic and plywood the rocket ship piggy bank so that you can hang it on a shelf or edge and can still see the fire overhanging, while being able to see the coins inside.
Awesome. That would be cool!
I’m not going to lie... that doweling plate, blew my mind. I never knew something like that existed.
Haha! They are so fun. I’m not exaggerating when I say my kids can use it for hours. Even when we don’t need dowels. Ha!
@@3x3CustomTamar Doweling plates are a great way to hammer your stress away.
Hans de Groot for sure! Also sometimes I give my kids scraps to whack through the holes just to keep them busy. I tell them it’s for my projects so they think they are helping me. Ha!
I think your an awesome woman.. Truly inspiring.
☺️
What a great mom!
☺️
Used all those tools flawlessly and needed a band-aid for a paper cut. Just goes to show a desk job isn't all it's cracked up to be. 😁 Nice projects.
Hahah agreed! Thanks!
Wow amazing I love the ideas💡. I always want to have more ideas on doing some kids wood projects.. Thank you .. I would love for more ideas.
Glad you liked them!
Nice job with lovely kids
Thanks!

You are such a great mom!! 👍🏻😄❤
