5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, May 2, 2002
By 
This review is from: Kids' Crazy Art Concoctions: 50 Mysterious Mixtures for Art & Craft Fun (Williamson Kids Can! Series) (Paperback)
I knew what I was buying when I bought this book. I wanted this book. This is a great book. There are 100's (? It seems like that at least) recipes for clay, paint, glue and more in there. It is an excellent book. I turn to this book whenever I need playdough. I turn to this book when I want to make paper mache and when I want to make fingerpaints, I turn to this book. This is a fantastic resource. Every kindergarten, pre-k teacher should have this on their personal shelves.

Enjoy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Basic Book of art/craft recipes, May 9, 2004
By 
This review is from: Kids' Crazy Art Concoctions: 50 Mysterious Mixtures for Art & Craft Fun (Williamson Kids Can! Series) (Paperback)
This is a great basic book of art and craft recipes. I checked it out of the library after seeing it at a friend's house, and now I want my own copy. Besides recipes, project ideas, notes on early art and art materials and bits of art history are included.

Some of the other reviewers have been a little unfair, slamming the book or the publisher for their not knowing what they had ordered. This book is not a knock off or trying to capitalize on something else. The original copyright of this book, as in the old library book I have in my hands, is 1995 -- which would keep it from being a knock off by the publisher or author. On top of that, if you go to the PBS website, and search for Kids' Concoctions, this is the book that shows up.

2.0 out of 5 stars The Kids Like It!, December 3, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Kids' Crazy Art Concoctions: 50 Mysterious Mixtures for Art & Craft Fun (Williamson Kids Can! Series) (Paperback)
I bought this book thinking it was another book I saw on TV called "The Ultimate Book of Kid Concoctions". At first I was very dissapointed with the book because it didn't have the exciting secret toy store recipes like the book on TV, but after 3 weeks on our book shelf my kids have already made two projects and seem to be enjoying the book.
