Fun Stuff to Do with Your Best Friend: The Interactive Dog Book

By Nancy Furstinger

Dogs were custom built to play with children, but sometimes both become bored with the same old game of fetch. This interactive book contains fun, exciting projects to spark children's interest and get their dogs tails wagging again. Easy-to-follow pooch projects include a home-made obstacle course, canine intelligence tests, frisbee and flyball activities, unique tricks, a yappy birthday party, and a hide-and-seek treasure hunt. Recipes, crafts and tips on grooming, feeding and training sprinkled throughout.

Family Interaction

This is the sort of fun read and reference which can involve the entire family, keep kid(s) busy, and keep the family pet amused. By using the book as a project, the kids can be involved, take responsibility by planning out their activites, and spend quality time with their pet. And finally, we were able to read the book together instead of turning on the tube! This is one book we keep out for everyone to use!

Fun Stuff = Great Stuff!

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed Fun Stuff by Nancy Furstinger. It's easy and fun to read and has a lot of great activities for kids and their dogs (or is it "dogs and their kids"?). We haven't tried all of the activities, of course, and we only tried one of the recipes so far, but it's a book we continue to use and refer back to. We're still working our way through the web sites, which gave us even more information! The "K-911" first-aid kit was a great idea and we now have one safely under our sink. A great book! Highly recommended!
