Easy Woodworking Project to Make with Kids // Beginner Woodworking Projects
Since a lot of us are stuck at home with our kids now, I figured I would show you guys a few quick and simple woodworking projects you can make with your kids.
DISCLAIMER: Woodworking is VERY dangerous. I demonstrate things in this video, like using power tools, as the prep work that should be done for these projects. I am in NO WAY suggesting you should let your children use these tools. Be smart! Decide whether or not your child is capable of focusing and listening to instructions before you let them touch any sort of tool.
Be SMART! Be SAFE! Have FUN!
Huge thank you to Woodcraft for sponsoring what I do! A great way to get your kids involved in woodworking is to let them use hand tools. The spokeshave is one of the safest handtools to use and kids love using them!

I like these ideas! Iโm 15 and have been wanting to get into woodworking so Iโm looking for easy but fun ideas, what advice/tips would you have for someone wanting to start out?
Lot’s of love from India โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ
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!
Thx
Maravilhas seu trabalho nota,1.000000. muito bom adorei seu
Idk about you guys, but I think that a bandsaw is much more dangerous than a table saw
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!
Disclaimers are good.
You have to watch this video right to the very end. Woodworker and uber mummy.
These are fantastic ideas. Thank you for sharing. Iโm definitely going to check out the rest of your channel!!
And new subscriber!

How come the sound tunnel needs to go around a corner? I mean, why could the tunnel not be a single drilled hole tunnel? ๐ณ Iโm missing an essential sound science tidbit here I think…
Wow amazing I love the ideas๐ก. I always want to have more ideas on doing some kids wood projects.. Thank you .. I would love for more ideas.
You’re so precise in making that slanted dowel. I can’t do that perfectly that I need to rely on jigs, otherwise CNC, LOL. Would appreciate if you could visit my newly started channel. Thanks! ๐
Hey, this is terrific, thanks. If you haven’t, go’ogle Woody Hyezmar’s book, get it while it’s available to download as a rough draft of a decent woodworking book that was supposed to be published.
Very fun and inspirational. You can easily make a miter box and jig for repeated cuts of the dowels. My scouts built several games this way.
Just built the banana holder. Nice quick little project ๐
Omg I thought it said the video went for 24 hours lol.
85 people have no soul.
Jigsaws are an excellent first power tool for kids to use.
Very Cool. Just finished holiday presents from your recent video (will send you an Instagram Pix). My nephew is getting a piggy bank for his holiday present. Aloha … tom

As far as power tools scroll saw is a great way to get them started
Really great video, thank you. Now I have a lot to think about… XD
๐๐๐
Fantastic!
Just got my kids to build their first bird houses (a cliche first woodworking project). Really like the penny banks, I think those may be next!
can I use 3:32, the banana holder design, for my Etsy shop?
Very impressive
As an Architect and perfectionist, Rule #2 is soooooo hard! but the most important for my daughters artistic development and enjoyment!!
I love that game/snack bag
Thank you for the good ideas. Your right about the prep work, they need the stuff ready!
Your kids love to sand? Lucky you. Sanding is my least favorite part of woodworking, and I think my kids hate it even more than I do.
Small projects, great big heart. Good on you, girlfriend!
I am doing for Christmas present lol.

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?
Hey Tamar, do you have recommendations for the PPE equipment that works great for kids?
Quite inspiring. Great time wirh the kiddo. Thank you.
Wow wonderful ideas.. I will create also for my son some of your ides
This is amazing!! Great stuff! New subscriber here!
Been contemplating the โidealโ childโs work station. A small end vice, dog holes, central tray for pencils , stapler, hooks for hand tools, built in power with USB and perhaps a removable vertical acrylic screen about 18โ high to protect the clean 1/3 side for computers. Some plywood drawers and solid wood table construction. Love to see your idea of a kids universal work bench!
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!
Only if every women smile that big standing next to a band saw…… (sigh)
This is one of my favorite videos, amazing
The speaker projects were really cool, good job!
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! ๐ can you do some more like these?
this deserves all the awards. you win. (and I don’t even have kids…)
