This review is from: Chicken Socks: How to Make Pompom Animals (Spiral-bound)

We bought this book for our four-year-old after she had a fantastic time with the Super Scissors Book (Chicken Socks). She also enjoyed this book immensely and now has a whole zoo full of both recognizable and imaginary creatures. After doing one animal together, she was able to create her other animals with very little assistance (and no reading). My only very minor complaints were that the glue bottle was too small and stiff for her tiny hands to use so I had to get her something else that was pompom friendly (craft glue), and the book does not include all the pompoms necessary to make all the activities in the book, so that if you want to do every page (like she did) you need to buy separate supplies. I suppose the fact that she wanted to make every possible animal is a great illustration of how much she enjoyed it. Also the book is clearly set up to be "cool" for both boys and girls, unlike some of their other publications.

I bought this book and activity kit for my four year old niece. She loved it! The pompom animals she made were not quite as "tidy" as the ones in the book photos, but she didn't care, it was still fun to make them. :D
