Description
An entertaining guide for girls on how to make the world into their workshop-with screen-free, hands-on activities for independent exploration, making, building, and play.
The Girl's Guide to Building a Fort shows girls and their grown-ups how to knock down the four walls holding them in and transform each day into a canvas for play and adventure. This illustrated, information-packed guide is for Hands-On Girls, girls who want to fix things, make things, and learn more about the world around them.
The book contains two sticker pages and dozens of activities, projects, and games-many of which can be done in 30 minutes or less with materials you already have in and around your home-and fun and interesting information on everything from how to spot constellations and change a bike tire to how to make your own jerky and what to do if you get lost in the woods. It's the must-have book for anyone, big or little, who's ready to learn new skills, get a little dirty, and reconnect with the whimsical, gutsy girl in each of us.
