FAQ
How do HandyFamm tools help kids with math skills?
Turns out, building things is sneaky math in disguise. Measuring wood, aligning angles, counting screws—all of it teaches real-world math without the homework complaints. HandyFamm tools make it easier for kids to grasp number sense, geometry, and early problem-solving while they’re deep in a DIY mission. It’s hands-on math that sticks because they’re doing, not just calculating. Read more about this
What are some easy DIY activities I can do with my kid this weekend?
You don’t need a full workshop or five free hours. From cardboard race tracks to fixing that squeaky stool together, we’ve got weekend projects that are fun, skill-building, and screen-free. Bonus: they’ll ask to do it again next weekend. Plus, it’s a great way to burn energy and boost their “I made this!” pride.Here’s your full guide for this weekend
How much time should I spend with my kid doing DIY?
Short answer? Even 20 minutes goes a long way. It’s not about clocking hours—it’s about showing up, building together, and giving them tools (literally and mentally) to explore. One tiny project a week can build lifelong skills and confidence. And let’s be honest, it’s way more fun than arguing over screen time.
