I was able to go in to my Grandaughters 3rd grade class and teach them a little bit about Wood Carving it was a blast. The kids were so very interested and at awe watching me,I think that I had more fun than they did.Here are a couple of pics of it. Hope you all enjoy.

Looks like it would have been a lot of fun. Hopefully we will get a few future carvers from the experience. Is that your grandaughter in the picture she looks like she enjoyed it
