AWESOME!, August 14, 2007
This review is from: The Storytime Craft Book (Spiral-bound)
I just picked this book up from the library, and now I just have to buy it for myself! This book has ingenious crafts for a very comprehensive list of classic fairy tales, children's stories, children's songs and nursery rhymes. To begin with, I couldn't have come up with a better collection of titles for my small children (stuff for babies, thru first grade, or so). The craft ideas are seriously original and very functional. The materials used are very common household items, and the instructions are clear. Most of the crafts are not so much for the kids themselves to make, but for an adult to make and use to present these classic works in a memorable way. Make Pinocchio's nose grow, the Old man "SNORE" (no kidding, it's really silly and fun), Jack climb the bean stock, and the Ginger Bread Man run... really! RUN!
I'm going to use this for homeschooling my kids in the classics. I'll bet they memorize each and every one. The only possible draw back to this book is that you must provide the stories themselves on your own. No biggie.
