Comments About Knot Tying and Lashings

Thank you for the great and insightful comments I received. The recommendations I received were very helpful. Danielle H. recommended including a shoe that children could practice tying laces on, Sam thought some cleats or fixtures would help with tying some of the knots and give guests and anchor, and Samantha recommend the addition of a tree branch to acted as the anchor. All of these ideas are great and I really liked that they all seemed to be achievable. The branch would act as a great way to include the natural environment that knots are associated with.

I did get some feedback that the activity may not be accessible to all guests and I do understand where the concern is coming from. I think the addition of the shoe is a really good way to get the younger guests involved and show off their new learned skills in everyday use. Challenges may be a good way to keep the interest of guests and give other a starting point from which they can grow.
