35 creative projects for children using natural and recycled
materials Making their own toys, games, gifts and ornaments
encourages children to use their creative flair - and if they can
use component parts that are adapted or recycled, so much the
better for them and the planet. None of Emma Hardy's projects in
Green Crafts for Children use any special materials. Instead, they
all rely on items that are likely to be in the cupboard, can be
found around the house or garden, or collected on walks in the park
or at the beach. There are recipes for salt dough and methods for
easy felting, plus ways to imaginatively use old gift-wrapping
paper and worn-out clothes, as well as pine cones, tree bark,
shells and other natural bits and bobs. Gifts for relatives and
friends are here, together with games and toys that can be made and
then played with again and again. From painted stones and a
friendship bracelet to a simple dolls' house and a driftwood boat,
children will love the projects in this engaging book. In fact,
kids need never be bored again.
With Debbie's techniques - like creating a beautiful butterfly
without glue or using leftover paper scraps for flowers - you
really can do crafts without making a huge mess. The projects in
each chapter create their own wonderful worlds for children to play
in. Whether they want to create a world under the sea, a magical
garden, or a monster puppet show, Debbie provides step-by-step
photos to make these projects extra kid-friendly. Projects include
Shimmery Jewel Dragon Flies, Paper Roll Octopus, Rubber Glove
Dragon and Plastic Bottle Alien. Besides being low-mess, all of
these 70 projects can be made with supplies you already have at
home - clothespins, paper towel rolls, construction paper, pipe
cleaners and tissue paper - making craft time easier than ever.
