Winter school holiday workshops sold out well in advance.

Timber became useful things.

Workshop snacks disappeared at an alarming rate.

PS. We usually bring a homemade snack to share during workshops. Suggestions for future workshop snacks welcome below! πŸ˜‹

Some pretty capable kids. πŸƒ

Confidence isn't the starting point.
Agency is.

The moment kids realise we trust them,
something clicks.

They stop looking for permission.
They start making decisions.

The confidence follows.

Why start a kids woodworking workshop?

WHY NOT?? We couldn't find the kind of workshop we wanted for our own kids, so we started one. 😌 πŸͺ΅

We spend a lot of time trying to keep kids entertained.

What if that's the wrong goal?

Give them something real to do.

They'll rise to it. πŸͺ΅

June was a lot.πŸͺ΅

School holidays fully booked.
Adult & Child sessions fully booked.
Sundays filling faster than we expected.
Enquiries we're still catching up on.

A boy told his mum the worst part of his day was her arriving to pick him up.

Five months into this thing we started.

We wrapped up our first full term programme this month.
A group of kids who didn't know each other in April, now have banter, in-jokes, and real friendships.

We don't have all the answers - and figuring things out alongside the kids has been one of the best parts of this for us.

We started this thinking it would be good for kids.
Didn't expect it to be this good for us too.

That's why we do this.
Thank you for a big June. πŸͺ΅

Most activities with your kid feel like chores. You get there. You watch. You get home. 😐

Not ours! 😏

This mum came back for her second session. She uses her chopping board every day. Her son's pieces? Too special to touch.

Everything we make at Ask & Embla is meant to be used. But if the kid says otherwise, who are we to argue. πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

We run these Adult & Child sessions occasionally. Our next two are fully booked.. so comment below or DM us to be added to the list. πŸͺ΅

Something we didn't anticipate when we started this. πŸͺ΅

Kids from different schools, different ages, who'd never have met otherwise - building something next to one another, becoming fast friends.

They banter, have inside jokes.... and occasionally team up to annoy Sindre. 😎

Some of them are already counting down to the next session, so they can hang again.

We didn't plan for that part. But it might be our favourite thing. ❀️
