Kids Spoon Carving Kit 

Start their carving adventure safely! Join the junior spoon club and let your child carve their very own cooking spoon. This kit provides everything needed to learn a lifelong skill—safely and creatively.

This isn’t just a craft box; it’s a hands-on introduction to the wonderful world of carving. We believe kids can rise to the occasion when trusted with real tools, which is why we’ve included a pair of high-quality cut-resistant safety gloves to keep little fingers safe while they learn. We recommend carving only under supervision by an adult.*

Guided by woodcarver and author Alex Finberg, the included online masterclass makes learning easy. The 70-minute video is broken down into simple steps, perfect for watching together as a family activity.

Inside the kit:

  • Safety First: A pair of cut-resistant carving gloves (specifically sized for younger hands).

  • The Tools: A genuine Mora hook knife and straight carving knife (Right or Left-handed options).

  • The Wood: A wooden spoon blank, pre-shaped and ready to carve.

  • The Teacher: Access to a full step-by-step video tutorial via a private login.

In the box:
• Mora Scout Carving Knife – a dedicated Swedish 'Scout' knife with finger guard and rounded tip for safer carving. Comes with a Birchwood handle and leather belt sheath
• Mora 164 Hook Knife – available in right- or left-handed versions.
• Axe-carved cooking spoon blank – made from locally sourced green wood.
• Kids Cut Resistant Gloves + video masterclass

Learn with Alex

The included online Cooking Spoon Masterclass was filmed in Alex’s South Devon workshop and guides learners through every step of the process — from roughing out to finishing cuts. His teaching style is steady and unhurried, helping carvers tune into the feel of the knife, the flow of the grain, and the simple pleasure of shaping something by hand.

Each blank is carved from fresh green, locally sourced wood, chosen for its softness and natural workability - species include cherry, alder and willow depending on availability. It’s ready to carve straight from the box 

Storage Tips

If carving can’t begin right away, the blank can be kept sealed in a plastic bag in the fridge for a few days, or frozen to preserve the moisture. Green wood naturally changes over time, so carving soon after arrival will always give the best results.

A Thoughtful Gift

A perfect gift for anyone who enjoys slow making, being outdoors, or finding calm through craft. Each kit combines simple tools, natural materials, and the quiet reward of creating something useful and lasting.

Make something beautiful you'll use & treasure daily!
