Mini Makers: Crafty Makes to Create With Your Kids

by Laura Minter, Tia Williams

The makes in 'Mini Makers' are designed to encourage the parent and child to craft together, with the adult typically creating the basic structure and the child decorating and personalizing to create the finished product. Clear step-by-step pictures guide you through how to do each project from scratch. As well as being great fun, the crafts encourage imaginative play and are designed to develop fine motor control whilst promoting life skills such as telling the time, playing games with other children, following rules, musical awareness, rhythm, baking and reusing household items. Projects include: Pebble dominoes, Clay tea set, Magnetic faces, Cardboard boat and a simple cape.

90% of the book was crafty stuff to make FOR your young kid, and only the other 10% was stuff for the child to actually do themselves.

Lots of beautiful, (mostly) unique projects using easy to find supplies, and easy to follow instructions. I got pretty excited about some of the ideas.
