Amazing Projects & Fun Things to Make, Do, Play & Give (Paperback)

Two fantastic books in a box: the ultimate rainy-day collection with 220 exciting step-by-step projects.



These two books are packed full of exciting ideas and activities for children - paint, crafts, science experiments, cooking, gardening, magic tricks, music and party games. ‘100 Fantastic Things to Make, Do & Play’, for children aged 3–8, explains how to make musical instruments, grow flowers in the garden, design stationery and bake a cake, and ‘The Really Big Book of Amazing Things to Make & Do’, for children aged 7–12, shows how to make friendship bracelets, do face painting, make necklaces and learn juggling – to name a few of the hundreds of projects. With over 2000 photographs illustrating 220 projects step-by-step, this boxed set will help children learn and find out more about the world, as well as keeping them entertained and delighted every day. Make a feather head-dress, wooden spoon puppets and a printed T-shirt; conduct simple experiments about light, sound and water; learn magic tricks and juggling; play fabulous party games; and do creative face painting - all the projects use easy, safe materials and equipment you will find around the home, and all the techniques are clearly explained with step-by-step photographs and lively finished pictures to inspire and delight.
