My Thoughts

I like this book!  The sheer variety of crafts available and the ease of use make this book a keeper in my eyes.  Judy Ann Sadler did an excellent job of putting these crafts together, and Caroline Price’s illustrations brought it all very much to life.   The only thing I would have liked would have been to see actual photographs of the finished craft. 

Crafts that I want to do… button puppy!  It’s too cute!  Bead buddies intrigues me for a doll class I still want to teach.  The Pom-pom bear would just be fun to give a try to, brings back memories of games I used to play with my lad.

    I love this! This would be a fun book to bring out on a chilly or rainy day with my toddler. It’s always fun to find new things to do with the kids that doesn’t involve electronics!

    Years ago I had a book called crafts a month. I used that book all the time. This would be great to have and use.

    Aw, this looks like such a cute book. I always loved crafts growing up, and my nieces and nephew love them now.

    Another good one with simple ideas. Looks like they use a lot of materials from around the house, which is a bonus!
