Little Maker: Carpentry Course for Children (1st Term) (in Slovenian)
9. 7. 2026
The Wood Lab invites young creators to join a summer carpentry course. Under the guidance of an experienced mentor, we will get to know real carpentry tools, use both hand and cordless tools, and learn the basics of carpentry operations.
Together we will measure, saw, sand, screw, and assemble wooden elements. We will create four practical wooden products:
- a toolbox
- an insect hotel
- a small stool
- a hanger for clothes, medals, or decorative items
In addition to strengthening manual skills and fine motor abilities, participants will also develop independence in their work and a sense of aesthetics. Young carpenters will not only gain technical knowledge but also essential skills in teamwork and problem-solving in a group and in real-life situations.
Let’s make the summer creative! Join us at the summer school in the woodworking lab at Center Rog and learn something new.
The summer carpentry school is intended for children aged 9 to 15.
