Art With Anything
has been awarded the prestigious National Parenting Publications Award:

 

 

NAPPA winner"This book is a great resource for parents who want to do arts and crafts with their kids, but need a little help with suggestions and materials. Perfect for a rainy day project, Art with Anything offers 52 weeks of ideas using everyday materials for children ages 4-10. The book is organized alphabetically by material and each week features one everyday material (leaves, pieces of fabric, buttons, rocks, junk mail, etc.) and provides five days of activities that increase in complexity with each day. Children are prompted to reuse and recycle household discards and to let loose their imaginations in such projects as “Glitter Photo Jars,” “Family Finger Puppets, or “Shake-It-Up-Bag Paintings.” Parent testers enjoyed having an array of project ideas all in one place, which they could refer back to time and time again."
