Cooperative play and collaboration are the foundational underpinnings of Tink and the activities center on doing, creating, and building together. The children build dens, learn to whittle and how to use axes, hammers, saws, tie knots, build fires, and read maps -- they learn how to work and play together, using real tools, to build things up and tear things down.
This is play!
This is childhood!
