Toys for kids

With 5 grandchildren I was looking for a book for ideas about making some simple wooden toys that would keep me occupied, and give them pleasure. Nielsen,s Wooden Toys takes you step-by-step through the various stages with each model and is well illustrated to guide you to the finished article. I found my electric fretsaw a big help cutting out the basic shapes although hand tools are all that are needed to make the toys in this book. Making wooden toys like the ones displayed in this book is a good way to use up all those odd bits of timber you have saved and gives a great deal of satisfaction when you see the look of happiness on the face of the child receiving the finished item. Easy to follow, well compiled and illustrated, this book is a good reference guide for the novice toy-maker.
