5.0 out of 5 stars Great Way to Interest a Child in Stamp Collecting, November 7, 2006

I bought a copy of "Stamp It!" for a six-year-old grandchild. What I like best about the book is that the activity pages are labeled by categories (e.g., "wild animals" and "sporty stamps"). Therefore he can affix on a page (with provided hinges) any stamps that fit the category, rather than being bound by spaces for specific stamps that he may never find. Also, there is a great introduction to stamp collecting at the beginning of the book that can be read to the child, if need be, and would initiate an inexperienced adult into the hobby as well. I have already ordered another copy for a grand-nephew.

I purchased Stamp It! for my nine year old grandson. The book is spiral bound and has a sturdy hard cover. It is colorful and informative. Great for the beginner stamp collectors.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great for Kids Just Starting Out, January 3, 2009

This particular book is great for kids just starting out stamp collecting. We used an inexpensive collection of used stamps to work on it that we purchased for under $5.00 off ebay to practice putting them into the different categories. It has places for you to collect stamps to tell about yourself (i.e. what your favorate color, flower, sport, etc.) and a family tree where you attempt to collect stamps from the birth places of your relatives which seems pretty fun, but a little challenging. For the price I thought it was a great way to get my little boy (8) into stamp collecting and gain a little knowledge of it. Would recommend for any child.
