  • Great variety
Great variety of activities for kids to do. Even the adults were finding the activities fun!

  • Great book with great ideas
My wife bought this to find ideas of things to make or do with our 3 and 5 year-old boys. There are so many great projects, crafts, and activities with clear and detailed instructions. Most of the materials required are also not hard to find, as they're mostly the things that you already have at home. Some of the activities or projects might be a bit too advanced for our kids, but we look forward to doing them later as they grow up! Definitely would recommend this book for activities to do with your kids, grandchildren, or students, and could be great as a gift as well! ... show more
