Workshop & Mechanic Activity Pack

For someone who spent their working life fixing engines, sharpening tools and keeping things running. Every page is built around a world they know: wrenches, engines, garages and the jobs that kept everything moving.

What’s inside

• Match the tool: wrench, hammer, screwdriver and hand saw, then pliers and a tape measure, each paired with the job it does
• Sort the parts: cut-out cards and sorting mats for nuts and bolts, then washers and screws
• Talk about it cards: their toolbox, who taught them, their first car or truck, the sounds and smells of the garage
• “How do you…” cards: change a flat tire, check the oil, set the timing, sharpen a chisel
• Garage word search at two sizes, with an answer key
• Coloring page: a workshop bench with tools on the pegboard
• One-page helper guide: how to start, what to say and when to stop, for family or care staff

Every activity comes in two levels. Start with Level 1 and move up if they want more.

How it works

1. Choose the edition and check out.
2. Download the PDF straight away. US Letter and A4 sizes are both included.
3. Print on any home printer. The pages are black-and-white line drawings, so no color ink is needed. Card stock is nice for the cut-out cards.
4. Sit down together, or leave a page out to pick up. Use the helper guide to get started, then let them lead.
