Yep, that's how you get them hooked. Start off with just a taste...a uke kit, some laminates. Then they start exploring with heavier lutherie fixes like sound ports, taropatches, exotic hardwoods, wood bindings and inlay. By the time they reach adulthood they're adding onto the house for shop space and every tree they see only looks like a wood opportunity.
I can already see the wood acquisition and tool acquisition syndrome in their eyes.
