We recommend our woodworking kits for ages 4 and up. We also highly recommend working alongside little ones to help with reading directions, nailing, sanding and painting. However, our woodworking kits are not just for kids. Adults of all ages have been building too!
No experience needed. Our full color easy-to-follow instructions will guide you right through the entire build process. We are also constantly updating our step-by-step videos.
Our Bug Hotel and Modern Birdhouse have everything you need! Some of our other woodworking kits just require a hammer, but we always provide all the nails, sandpaper, non-toxic silicone glue and even paint in most of our kits. Don’t have a hammer… we got you covered with our deluxe tool set and leather tool belt.
Prices vary from kit to kit, typically $30-$40. We work hard to keep costs down as much as possible with ever changing transportation and lumber prices. The truth is you can find cheeper projects out there, the problem is they are made from manufactured wood-like materials that are flimsy and breakable, not to mention made with dangerous chemicals. We take pride in purchasing our wood from responsibly managed forests through terrific organizations like the FSC.
Our original Birdhouse kit is slightly taller and features cedar shaker-style shingles and cedar windows with natural wood slices. For younger builders, we created a Jr. size that is slightly shorter and comes with a set of paints and brushes instead of the more intricate shingles and windows.
The original birdhouse kit typically takes a few hours or more to build. We recommend taking your time, carefully sanding each piece for a finished look.
The Jr. birdhouse kit typically takes an hour or more to build. We recommend taking you time as you sand each piece and paint the finished Jr. Birdhouse.
Our Candy Dispenser Woodworking kit includes a 16-ounce mason jar (plastic), 30 nails, 16 natural unfinished wood pieces, sandpaper, a pack of starter candy and our step-by-step instruction guide with full color photos.
The Candy Dispenser Woodworking kit typically takes an hour or more to build. We recommend taking you time as you sand each piece for a finished look.

You bet! We offer discounted prices on all our woodworking kits. If you are a camp, church or group interested in a larger quantity please reach out to us directly and we would be happy to work with you. We regularly provide orders of 100-500 kits.
All of our woodworking kits come with an easy to use instruction packet with full color pictures for each step. We created these simple walk-through instructions with kids in mind. We always recommend working alongside any child to not only make sure they safely build, but that you also create memories together. You can also visit our video page for videos of each build.
