Craft Lab for Kids Review & GIVEAWAY

Get crafty! The popular Lab for Kids series continues with Craft Lab for Kids: 52 DIY projects to inspire, excite, and empower kids to create useful, beautiful handmade goods by Stephanie Corfee. Her new book features a variety of textile, decorative, paper, functional and fashion crafts for kids! These make-by-hand projects use tools and materials you likely already have - a combination of arts and crafts store supplies, items to upcycle or recycle, and kitchen and household items. A few labs require specific supplies. Most projects are clearly laid out on colorful two-page spreads with easy-to-read instructions that include a materials checklist, finished examples, photos with text instruction, and tips. A few labs are on 4 pages. All projects are loosely organised into one of the following units by purpose - Express Yourself, Take Care of YOU, Kids Just Wanna Have Fun, Classic Crafts with a Twist, 15-Minute Makes, Kindness Crafts and Spruce Up Your Stuff. The complete table of contents is listed below. Kids will love! Quarry Books released this 144 page paperback on May 26, 2020. It is also available in e-book format. Get your copy below!
