For Jonah's birthday in April, we bought him the book Tin Cups & Tinder: A Catholic Boy's Little Book of Fire, Food and Fun. I was thrilled to find a project book geared toward nature loving boys. The first project? making a Haversack. This was to be a father son endeavor, I got out the necessary supplies and then left strict instructions to take pictures!

This nature boy is ready to go!
Do you have a boy that loves crafty projects?
Linking today at NOBH and Works for me Wednesday.

I was reading your post this morning and I said "Oh wow, cool!" and my husband said, "can I be nosy and ask what you are reading?" So I showed him your post and the book and he said, "oh wow, cool!" We are getting a book because we have three XY children and they love nature and they will love this book. :)
Fabulous Father-Son endeavor! That's one mighty cool haversack:)
Hi - just letting you know that I posted on you today: http://adoptivus.blogspot.com/2011/07/why-blog.html
Kimberlie- I know you will really enjoy the book!
Mary Elizabeth- absolutely! Keep us posted.
How much fun for Jonah!!! And I love that Dad helped out with this and not Mom. What a great gift idea, Jen. Stan is really still in the cut and paste mode, but he will soon need a book like that!
We have that book! We have not made anything yet, but I am glad to see that your son had fun making something. I love that this book has so many "boy" ideas.
