My seven year old LOVES to craft. If he isn’t thinking of creative activities to do with me, then chances are I can find him in the garage with his daddy coming up with wood working activities. I will also be the first to admit that I do not have a crafting bone in my body. I am always looking for things to do with the boys and I seriously hate wasting hours on the internet on a certain site trying to see what I can find. Recently our family had the time to check out BoyCraft and loved it!
Boys love making stuff. Not just model boats, paper airplanes, stick weapons and colossal messes-although they love that too. Boys like knitting; scarves, hats, spiders and monsters. Boys like sewing-especially if they can use the sewing machine. They like cutting and sticking and gluing and sawing and hammering. BoyCraft: Loads of Things to Make for and with Boys (and Girls) is packed full of project for fearless and crafty boys…and girls!! From dastardly disguises to finger-knitted scarves, petrifying paper-mache heads to action-figure apparel, this book with inspire, entertain and empower kids who want to flex their creative muscle and make something different and fun.
What We Thought:
This is an awesome craft book! You can make Model craft, wood crafts, paper crafts, stitch crafts…the list seriously goes on and on. The projects aren’t super intense or time consuming which is perfect for my seven year old. There are even crafts that I can do with my three year old which is great. This book is also great to use for 4H and Boy Scout groups as well!!
BoyCraft: Loads of Things to Make for and with Boys (and Girls) has a SRP of $19.99 and is an fantastic addition to any collection!!
