Timothy Egan, Author, The Worst Hard Time: These guys were nobodies. The odds of these blue-collar boys, living in the worst time in American history, becoming sports heroes, are just astronomical.

Timothy Egan, Author, The Worst Hard Time: These kids were very representative of the Pacific Northwest, which was raw, newly shaped. The city of Seattle was only about eighty years old. These boys were the sons of loggers, the sons of fishermen. They did odd jobs for a buck a day. They used their hands as claws and their backs as levers, you know. They were grunts.
Daniel James Brown, Author: Ulbrickson would sometimes just jerk boys out of boats without giving an explanation. Some of the kids had a hard time with that. Joe Rantz certainly did. It made him very uncertain about things.
Narrator: In June, the national championship in Poughkeepsie loomed. A few days before their race, Ulbrickson gave them the day off, and the boys from Seattle decided they would visit one of the local residents.
Narrator: On the morning of July 15th, two and a half weeks before the start of the Olympics, the boys from Washington who had previously only been on lakes and rivers, began a journey across the Atlantic Ocean. The S.S. Manhattan luxury liner was a 668-foot ship that would transport 334 members of the U.S. Olympic team to Germany -- and also -- a sixty-two foot Pocock racing shell.
Daniel James Brown, Author: They put it to him almost as an ultimatum and that was a very unusual thing. Ulbrickson thought about it for a bit and he decided this was a case where he had to trust the instincts of the boys. He was gonna put Don Hume in the boat.

Can you share a few of the papercraft sites that you use to download patterns that your boys like to cut-out? when you google 'papercrafts', you get tons of stuff that doesn't seem to have patterns for young boys.. thank you!
My son read the Origami Yoda book series recently which started his interest in origami. He and his friend have spent hours making regiments of paper storm troopers and all the other characters from Star Wars. Sewing can actually be a fun and useful skill for boys to have. My hubby made a plush soccer ball and football as a tween and still has them!
Terrific ideas--thank you! Like other readers, I am diligently trying to limit electronics. Some other seasonal ideas: bowling, ice skating, roller skating, skiing. With sleep over guests last weekend, my son decided to have his friends build "egg drop" crafts out of recyclables. They then dropped the eggs from the second floor and checked to see if the egg remained intact. This was a good rainy day activity! I am going to take another readers suggestion in the spring to get my boys, age 9 and 12 out "mountain" biking in the nearby metro parks. Thanks again!
I'm a grandmother of 10. 6 of them are boys. One of my grandsons use to get off the bus here. He came in one day and wanted to do something....... I spread out a thick towel on the table gave him tools and an old VCR. He took it apart and was so content. Scavenger hunts are one of their favorite things. You can also make a game of it by using a camera to find the things on your scavenger list. Cameras are great also to take along in the car. Just give them to anyone and they know what to do. Many young folks just need a little direction since they have been exposed to the screens for their whole life.
My oldest son loves wood engraving. It's great for boys just make sure there is good adult supervision because it involves lasers. You can get a kit at home depot. My son loves making signs and pictures in wood. He also loves various science projects. There is various science projects for tween boys on You tube that we like to do.
These are not just for boys! But moms of boys sometimes have a hard time finding things that they like to do. Craft ideas for girls are abundant, while activities for boys are not as much. This is just meant to be a resource for moms of boys, but of course girls would enjoy many of these things!
Great ideas! the other things that my boys have been doing this summer is making BMX trails in the woods, building skateboarding ramps, gem mining ($!), writing cartoons, writing "how to" instructions, fishing, drawing, and making sport videos using the "slopro" app (requires ipod/iphone).
I'm a children's librarian and am always searching for ideas that would interest boys between the ages of 7 and 12. I use Legos, duct tape, and snap circuits. They are great. Thanks for all these new ideas. Please keep them coming!

The boys, who were all members of a soccer team, had gone into a long, winding underground cave with their coach to celebrate one of the boy's birthdays. But it was just before the beginning of the four-month monsoon season, and while they were in the cave, it started to downpour outside. Rain water rushed into the cave, trapping them deep inside.
Documentary filmmaker Chai Vasarhelyi describes the cave as incredibly intimidating, with a "a darkness that kind of pulls you in." The boys and the coach were about two kilometers in, she says, and "trapped on the wrong side of the water."
The filmmakers and diver spoke about how an expert team of cave divers, Thai Navy SEALs and an international group of special service members and volunteers pulled off the harrowing mission and got all 12 boys and their coach to safety.
We were uniquely placed to understand the situation and to put forward the rescue. So that was a huge responsibility. And from that moment when I came out of the cave having found them, I completely changed. All my efforts were directed towards the rescue and saving those boys.
Highly designed and filled with activities, sidebars, and inspirational quotes, this book is the perfect social-emotional learning tool for parents and educators to jump-start conversations about masculinity with the boys in their lives.
