Check out how thick this book is! It really is an amazing collection of creative and educational crafts that parents as well as kids will love to do. The book focuses on children ages 3-12 and, depending on the craft project, adults may want to help the younger age set with some of them.
The book is full color with detailed photograph instructions. There is also a photo glossary of items needed to make a well-stocked craft shelf and even a section on basic craft skills (how to make a simple running stitch, etc).
I mean, how fun are these craft projects?!?
The Water Fireworks project caught my kids’ eye when we first flipped through the book so naturally it became our first crafty project!
It is a really neat science experiment and so fun to watch.
Let’s make some fireworks, shall we?
Water Fireworks

How cool! Thanks for partnering for a terrific giveaway! If I don’t win, I may just have to buy this book!
Oh, I would so love to win this book for Kindergarten children!
Looks like a great source of inspiration!
We love doing science projects in our house – I am not sure if she includes this in her experiment, but we like to shake up the contents and observe the results…how they never truly mix and eventually separate – until you ad some drops of dish soap – then see what happens!
We have been enjoying the splash pad at our neighborhood park. We are visiting family in Montana next month.
Looks like a fun book!!! Thanks!
We’re a crafty family, so this coming week we are working on batik and tye-dye! 🙂 Also going bowling alot (in air conditioning as the weather is HOT) via the kidsbowlfree.com program. Great giveaway; thanks for the chance to win!
My birthday at the end of this month (that I still need to make plans for)! 🙂
No special summer plans except for enjoying my newborn grandson!
Had family visit and rented a boat for the day. That was great! Otherwise we are hanging out, swimming, crafting.
Spend as much time at the pool as we can!! lubrundage@comcast.net
Camping, cleaning, organizing and working.
Would love to win a copy of this book for my granddaughter!
My fun plans for the summer include my sisters wedding! bjn1957{at}gmail{dot}com
We bought a water table for my kiddo and it’s definitely been the highlight of our summer! I also am trying to get some sewing done and simplify our lives by getting rid of things that don’t serve a purpose. 🙂

Trying to keep cool and finding time for some crafting:) Looks like a great book!
My only goal this summer ois to downsize downsize downsize. We are moving out to the country in half the square footage with a ton of acreage, but we get the country life horses,goats and chickens and a huge garden so the fun will be later but for now we work!
The kids are excited to see planes this summer and of course go visit their cousins in MN! Thanks for the giveaway- Kit@planeboy17@yahoo.com
We always need new ideas to keep kids occupied. Thanks for the chance!
Um no, how sad is that no plans. We are trying to have fun the usual kid stuff like going to the pool, or making stuff in the kitchen (I hate the outdoors in the summer) we would like to go camping but that probably won’t happen until it cools off and our girls quit freaking out around bugs!
In late september we will be going on our “Summer”vacation/5th anniversary trip to the beach.

We are going to stay in a cabin in the woods for a week, and go metal detecting at night on the beach and explore the woods
This looks really cool! My son would love this book! Perfect timing for Summer fun!!
My family and I are going camping next week, hopefully! We had some long-term illness and a new baby born(with some complications at first) so we are taking it easy this summer! Lots of day trips like the park with the kids, and boating and sailing! We would love to get this book to keep the kids busy at home.
We are trying to stay cool at grandmas pool

We’re going to the zoo in a couple of weeks and then an extended weekend camping. I’m just hoping this hot weather breaks before then.
