is guaranteed to add a whole heap of fun to playtime. Stuck for
something fun to do on a rainy day or worried about how to keep
entertained on a long car journey? Don't panic, because you have in
your hands one of the best boredom-busting books on the planet!
Packed with 35 of the finest paper projects this side of Tokyo,
Origami for Kids shows how to take a simple piece of paper and turn
it into something so much more exciting, like a finger puppet, a
robot, pretty flowers, a gift box for your treats and treasures and
even a sumo wrestler. The projects range from very easy to more
challenging - the tulip or the rabbit will show you the basics,
while aspiring origami addicts will love the squirrel, windmill,
snowflake and snowman. You really will be amazed at what you can
create with just a few simple folds. The best thing about the book
is that it comes with 60 pieces of paper, meaning you can start
folding straight away. And you really can make models anywhere: at
home, in the park, on holiday, with friends at school... How cool
does that sound?!
You don't need to spend a fortune on your own cool, custom-made
stuff. Ingenious ways to use inexpensive materials - many of which
you may already have lying around mean you can bake, sew, make and
grow loads of brilliant things. Four lovely step-by-step books that
encourage readers to use the materials and environment around them
to encourage creativity. Can also be used to demonstrate ways to
recycle and reuse everyday materials and encourage discussions
around wasting food and other resources.
This book features easy conjuring tricks for kids, shown step by
step. It presents 16 amazing and impressive acts for children to
master. It offers all the secrets of a successful magician -
presentation, magic words, and the subtle tricks of the trade. More
than 200 practical photographs ensure that the illusions are easy
to follow and fun to do. You can make objects vanish, make money
appear out of nowhere, become an escape artist, and much more! It
includes simple and safe techniques for youngsters to make their
own magician's equipment. With their natural senses of mischief and
fun, children love to play tricks and spring surprises on friends
and family. The awe-inspiring illusions in this book have been
specially selected to include basic acts that require only one
easily accessible prop, such as string or a magic wand, as well as
more elaborate performances that require greater preparation and
practice. This is the perfect starter book for ages 3-7 years - for
older readers to use with minimum supervision, and for younger
children to enjoy with adult help.
