Did you know the cradleboard, or “Tikinagan” in the Ojibway language, has been used for generations to carry infants while keeping babies safe and comfortable? Babies are wrapped in a moss bag and securely bound to a cushioned board, usually made with wood and laced together with thin strips of leather.

Learn more about the Tikinagan and other examples of Indigenous engineering from Ed-Digenous Traditions at www.Ed-DigenousTraditions.ca and on their YouTube Channel at www.YouTube.com/-DigenousTraditions2200

📣 Elevate your classroom with a touch of tradition and cultural richness by incorporating the North American Indigenous Talking Stick Kit into your teaching tools.

This remarkable kit, deeply rooted in the practices of Indigenous people, Māori, aborigines, and some African tribal groups, is more than just an educational resource—it's a bridge to the past and a tool for the future. Designed to foster respect, patience, and attentive listening, the talking stick's use in storytelling and discussion promotes equality and understanding among speakers.

Each kit includes a natural stick, leather laces, beads, a shell, feathers, and a leather piece for the handle, allowing you and your students to engage in a meaningful assembly that reflects individual creativity while honouring traditional significance. Missing only scissors, a hot glue gun, and optional paints, this kit is your key to unlocking lessons of spiritual representation, strength, courage, and hope.

Don't just teach history—bring it to life in your classroom with the Talking Stick Kit. Order now and provide your students with an enriching, hands-on experience that echoes the voices of centuries.
