What People are Saying About This

Daniel Carter

Builder Boards is a book, a concept and a project that will have children of all ages working together to create play structures of their own design. Jack McKee, a teacher from the northwest, with a background in construction and carpentry has designed notched boards that link together to form play structures. His design is so basic, yet unique, you will look at it and say, “why didn't I think of that?”
