Cheap Pipe Cleaner Forest Kit by Martha Stewart Create Review
Craft supplies, doll furniture, chipboard shapes and kids play sets.
I bought this for my 5.5 year old who is half way through kindergarten. She loves to make books (drawing pictures and writing about them) so I thought a hard cover pop up book about HER would be perfect. She does love the book, however, if you're looking for a book where your child is doing writing, this is not the book for you. I assumed that there would be areas for my child to read and fill in and WRITE about herself but that is not really the case. The first two pages are like this - it asks her name, nickname, age, hair color, birthday, etc - but the rest of the book doesn't require the child to do any other writing, it just requires the child to draw pictures about the given topic (family, home, etc). She still loves it and it's cute but it does not require writing (except for the first 2 pages) so the child's not really making a book, but drawing in one.
The books comes with markers and stickers and spirals to make pop ups so it is a fun activity.
overall I would purchase again but I wanted to let other buyers know that it's not really a book making / writing activity since it's mainly focused on drawing pictures.
I played with this toy, and could not believe my ears! How it really works, I'm not certain, but somehow this MAGICAL toy can decipher whatever color you use, and translate that color into a musical note. Coloring the pre-printed disks will sure to be a hit for kids 5-8, but the ability to write your own music by creating art will sure to entertain kids 6-106!
