Customer Reviews

A classic hand-on play book

Our family loved this book when I was a kid, and I am now the lucky owner of our family copy which I use with my own children. Our all-time favorite is the spider web room! All activities use common household items, so it's the perfect antidote to those "I'm bored!" moments all of us parents dread. The photos are very 70's, but the activities and games are timeless. A younger child will need some help, but older kids should be able to do most on their own.

a definite classic

I read this book a couple of years ago (when I was much younger) and I loved it! It had tons of activities and crafts for a kid my age then (I was around 12 yrs old). The text was simple and easy to understand. The images that accompanied the text also made the crafts much easier to build. I read it again a couple of days ago and tomorrow, I shall build (again) the spider web game.
