Sci Fri: Lilian B Womrath (Stewarts Boat)

 j

Our biggest project for Stewart studies was creating our own Lilian B Womrath. Inspired by this sweet Waldorf wooden canoe https://www.remodelista.com/posts/5-favorites-waldorf-worthy-bath-toys-for-babies/?epik=dj0yJnU9cWxINjNENzE0Q0JhNmptdFUzLUlpQVZxZVBvRFFxYWEmcD0wJm49MUNwd1ZzZkJ4MmxhYkhpX2J1WjNWUSZ0PUFBQUFBR0JEV0w4, I cut 8" lengths of 2x4 and trimmed the corners. The kids then sanded and drilled places for their masts and peg people to board.



 
We finished off the boats with a beeswax wood protector; melting one part beeswax with one part jojoba oil.
