Joyce Rice - Children's Literature

At Christmas everyone is looking for a way to involve the kids in this most festive time of the year. What better way than to teach them some simple crafts. Children can then use the handmade crafts for Christmas gifts. These eleven crafts are simple in design, and use materials that are readily available. The instructions point out which crafts may require adult participation or supervision. The back of the book includes an index and recommendations for other books to read, as well as kid-friendly websites to visit. This book would make an excellent gift, and it's a good addition to the craft section of all libraries serving children. 2004, Enslow Publishers, Ages 9 to 12.
