Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal
Grade 3-5?Twenty-nine craft projects with autumn themes, including a school bus picture frame, a fall tree lapel pin, a soft sculpture pumpkin, a leaf-print banner, and a tree puppet that changes color. Two projects can also be used for Jewish holidays. Some of the activities are easy, but others may take several tries before catching on to the techniques or getting the right effect. A few of the crafts, specifically the Columbus Day and Thanksgiving party hats, are attractive and can be done by younger children if the materials are precut. The full-color drawings are clear, helpful, cheerful, and encouraging. This is a creative book that will be used by children, especially those with a natural flair for crafts. Teachers and scout leaders will also appreciate it.?Marcia W. Posner, Holocaust Memorial and Educational Center of Nassau County, Glen Cove,

5.0 out of 5 stars Hello Rainy Days!, October 29, 2000

By	Christy Bagasao (Las Vegas, NV United States) - See all my reviews

Kathy Ross's creative books have my children turning off the television and asking to have craft-time. I enthusiastically agree to an afternoon of crafts with more fun ideas than ever before. Her projects fit in well with holidays, homeschool themes, or just a rainy afternoon, and are great for any parent whose creativity is running dry, or a child whose imagination needs channeling. We checked this book out from the library so many times that now we have decided to buy one of our own. Great ideas for all ages...even Mom!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for Group Crafts, November 7, 2003

By	Julie Cafaro (Westerville, OH USA) - See all my reviews

This is a great book to use for group crafts. I use it for my Sunday School class and my Brownie troop. The crafts are cute, easy and inexpensive. All of these crafts can actually be made by the child without adult help. I have the fall and winter books and they beat all my other kids crafts books hands down!
