4.0 out of 5 stars
Interesting project ideas for those lazy, idle afternoons, November 23, 2009
This review is from: Child's Play (6-12): 160 Instant Activities, Crafts, and Science Projects for Grade Schoolers (Paperback)
I actually picked this up at a library sale and my preschooler and I have been steadily working our way through the projects which have proven fun and interesting. The book is fairly well-organized, covering indoor projects and paper crafts, science projects, sewing and fabric crafts, writing and thinking projects, quick and easy costumes, and outdoor projects and activities. Many of the materials required for the projects can be found within the home, and are inexpensive. I like to keep my child entertained through projects that either get her to use her imagination and creativity or exercise her critical thinking skills, and this has become quite a nice resource for that purpose (sure beats plonking in front of the TV for mindless entertainment!). It also gives me a chance to participate in something fun and creative, and share the experience with my daughter.
