Scrimshaw is the art of carving pictures into whale teeth. Using sharp objects, sailors would spend hours carving scenes into the hard teeth. Today, the children used a bar of soap to represent a whale tooth. Each child carved a “W” for whale into a bar of soap. Tapping on our own teeth gave us an idea of how difficult it must be to carve into real whale teeth!
