Easy-To-Do Holiday Crafts from Everyday Household Items!

This craft book helps me plan activities with my grandchildren that are interesting for them and for me. It helps pass time when we do not have other activities scheduled. I like the picture of each project along with the list of items needed. Regularly purchase and save common items needed for projects and keep them in a central place. Having supplies available for a number of possible projects is indeed helpful as I never know which project will hold the most interest for my grandchild.

I bought this book to use with my grandchildren, aged 4 and 8. I like the spiral binding, and most of the ideas are good for children this age, as advertised--give or take a year or so either way, depending on the child. The best part is the recyle/reuse aspect of this collection. The materials are readily available and the concept sparks related ideas for creative "green" children's projects.

This is a fantastic book for parents,teachers, or anyone who likes to make crafts. Moms and teachers especially are always looking for ways to make crafts that don't cost much. This book shows you how to make really cute and original projects out of things we would recycle (or throw away!). I recommend it highly!

I got this book for my 5 year old daughter and 5 year old niece. They both love to make things and loved the items in this book. My daughter wanted to make so many things for each holiday, we didn't come close to making all of them. There are some items that are a bit lame, but the others make the book worth it. I only had to buy a few low cost craft items like felt squares, pipe cleaners, ribbon, and the like to make the items in the book. Everything else we had in the house (egg cartons, construction paper, material scraps, ...). If you have "crafty kids" this is a good idea book for them. It would also be good for preschools, elementary schools, and churches.
