I Can Make a Rainbow: Things to Create and Do, for Children and Their Grown Up Friends

An art book done in cartoon style which shows how to create many wonderful things using found items and simple ingredients. It encourages both children and adults to be creative.

I purchased this book orginally over 12 years ago, when my children were young and while I was running a family home child care business. The kids and I loved it! It's full of wonderful ideas for everyday activities using "recycable" household items such as card board tubes, newspaper, string... many different ideas to keep the projects interesting and the kids busy creating. I recently ordered this book for my grandson and family so as he grows they can enjoy many of the activities together, his mother did growing up.

I get a warm fuzzy every time I remember this fabulous book from my childhood. I used to check it out from the library at my elementary school as often as possible and I still remember some of the projects I made (stained glass windows made out of paper, crayons, and vegetable oil, anyone?). FULL of crafts and fun things on all time and skill levels - perfect for building creativity for kids of all ages. I would recommend this for babysitters, kids, parents, or anyone that needs crafty inspiration!!!

I read through this book. I find that this is an awesome resource for teachers, art teachers, students, parents, caregivers, and the list goes on. If you work with children this is a must have for you!!!

Excellent resourceful book. Great for a rainy day or boredum busting. My church uses it for Sunday School and I use it for my kids. Some Arts and Craft Ideas for all ages and interest. Something to pick up before schools out for the summer. Also try, Majorie Frank's IF YOU'RE TRYING TO TEACH KIDS HOW TO WRITE, YOU GOTTA HAVE THIS BOOK.
