Safety Point! Take great care with hot glue guns and all hot-melt glues. The melted glue can stick to the skin and cause severe burns.

Notes:
- Choose metal cutting hacksaw blades - the teeth are small which suits this scale of work and they are safer for young children
- School PVA glue is best for young children because it is non-toxic and washes off : PVA Wood Glue is strongest but must be used with care.
- Try to get natural Flower Sticks or wear gloves because the green stain comes off on hands!
