Our beautiful neighbours are from Iqaluit, and have and Inuksuk on their lawn that Xander has always admired. He was interested to learn more, and build a few different designs.
We started by learning a bit about the Inuksuk, and did a google image search to explore and find designs.
I bought the stones from the dollar store but you could collect stones for the project. Xander made his designs horizontally on the table, and then I applied hot glue while he placed the stones. The hot glue is not permanent at all though, it's a quick solution to place and adhere the stones fairly solidly and quickly.
I will add an epoxy later.
Xander had so much fun. He also made a few free form sculptures.
He loved choosing the stones for his creations.
This was a fun project for Xander.
Awesome!
