I recently checked this book out of the library. I liked it so well I decided to get a copy for myself. I home school my children k4 and k5) and I have a TON of craft books. But this is by far the best (geared for age 2 to 6). Lots of different ideas to teach texture, color ect. All simple and most items I have on hand. If you homeschool or just want a book to do with your preschool age children this is an awesome book. Here is an example:Bumpy Paint... childs liquid paint, salt, paint brush, smooth finish white paper or paper plate. Mix 1 tablespoon of paint and 1 tablespoon of salt in dish. Mix (should be thick). paint applying some areas thick. Microwave 10 to 30 sec. should have bumby texture when dry. The book goes into more detail and each idea gives a suply list, what you do, what your child does and what the results should be.
Easy to get my kids artsy with stuff around the house!

I was instantly impressed with this book, because when I looked through it, all I saw being used for the arts and crafts were things that I have already laying around the house - mainly simple paper and markers. What a treat! Usually you have to make a special trip to the craft store to complete crafts found in other books or magazines, but this book has great ideas (some you wonder why you didn't think of yourself)for using your everyday tools to great effect!
