Boys and Knives, etc.
Ellie, Scouts in Utah cannot be trusted to teach young ones to use knives. They are busy searching for other lost scouts, destroying precious archeological artifacts and scaring off the wildlife.
Get a small Swiss Army knife with a few tools in it. Davis (and James, undoubtedly) can practice opening and closing it for hours on end to try different tools. Next they can graduate to mumblypegs which will improve hand/eye coordination. This is much better than video games -which also improve eye/hand coordination...I'm told.
Luke has been skinning the squirrels that inhabit our space. These are the critters that Gwen has nailed with her slingshot. Come on! Let 'em have some fun!
