My First Craft Book

Give your kids their first taste of crafting with My First Craft Book, a brilliant introduction to a world of endless creative possibilities. With Emma Hardy's 35 quick and easy ideas aimed at children aged from 7 to 11, there are hours of fun to be had. Every project comes with crystal clear instructions and cute artworks that guide your child through every step to make exciting toys, games, costumes and more. Kids who love to get messy will enjoy all the painting and printing projects, while tiny tailors can learn the basics of sewing by stitching together jewellery, toys and more. You'll find you can make lots of things with just paper and glue in the papercrafts section, and then kids can move onto bigger projects in the costumes section where there are lots of ideas for creative play. There's a whole range of projects using natural and recycled materials, too. Every activity expands your child's knowledge and once they have mastered the basics they can let their imagination run wild and start work on their own craft projects.
