Hardanger Fartøyvernsenter: A museum that the children like better than I do
Activities: We visited the Hardanger Fartøyvernsenter, a boat museum. We watched the workers and spent time in a small open-air workshop. We also built our own boats using tools and materials provided
Highlights: The kids loved the program for children, especially building boats with real tools. "We feiled our boat ergonomically perfect". Our boat was much better looking even if it sunk! ✨
