4.0 out of 5 stars Great for kids, December 27, 2004

This review is from: Best of Sewing Machine Fun For Kids -The (Paperback)

I got this for my daughter for Christmas along with the Barbie sewing machine. So far she loves it. It's a great way to introduce sewing to beginners. The book starts out by having kids sew straight lines on paper without any thread. It's a great way to get kids familiar with using the sewing machine without wasting thread or fabric. The projects are fun and simple to do and the games and puzzles are fun and informative.

The only reason why I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is that I was hoping for more usefull patterns. One of the projects is to make a sandwich (meat, lettuce, bread, etc.) out of fabric. It looks like it will be fun to do but who really needs a fabric sandwich?

This book is primary level, the very basics of sewing. It can be used with very young ages and should accompany the first sewing machine. I love the games and drills that will increase proficiency on machine work.

What a great intro into the world of sewing. Lots of fun exercises and drills for technique as well as wonderful ideas to stimulate creativity. Get those girls (and boys) to the machine and let them go with this book.
