I bought this last year when the shorter, and therefore cheaper Usbourne christmas Activities was sold out. I am so glad it was as this book is fantastic. It includes most of the other usborne Christmas books as seperate chapters, on Christmas cards, decorations, baking etc. The stickers add a fantastic touch to everything you create and there are LOTS of them. My 5 year old daughter wanted to make everything, and we gave it a good try but did not scratch the surface, needless to say this Christmas we will be trying again!! A fabulous book and fantastic value for money

I purchased the book at the beginning of December and as a childminder found it brillant, we made lots of the things in there, and a one of our favourites was the Snowmen paperchain which even my 12 and 9 year children really enjoyed designing and colouring. A book for all ages.

Over the Christmas period this book was brilliant containing lots of ideas for things to make and do which could be tailored to my specific class if they were too easy or hard. At that time of year things are so busy so it was really helpful to have such good ideas on hand which kept my class of 6 year olds very engaged.

I purchased this book after having purchased the USBORNE Big Book Of Fairy Things to Make and Do Big Book of Fairy Things to Make and Do (Usborne Activities)(which is a lovely book) and was disappointed to find that 12 of the 49 art projects in this Christmas book were taken from the Big Book of Fairy Things to Make and Do. I will be keeping the book anyway as the remaining art projects are quite nice and the recipes are interesting for little hands too. If I hadn't have had the Big Book Of Fairy Things to Make and Do already then I would have been super happy with this book. I do recommend this book all the same.

Format:Spiral-bound
This is a good book with the contents being divided into: Christmas decorations, stickers (provided);Christmas cards and wrapping paper; Christmas cooking and a "miscellaneous" section. In my view, it is slightly more orientated towards girls than boys. It is age appropriate for my 5 year-old and we have found some things to do with one of her boyfriends. Definitely some appropriate activites for my 3 year-old son as well. There are no 'outstanding' ideas however.

There are some good ideas but a little complicated so not good for very young children. Adult involvement needed at all times. Also heavy emphasis on decorations and cards and paper but no gift ideas and little cooking. Great selection of Christmas stickers to use.

i bought this book for my 6 year old son, and as usual - i opened it up and its full of fairies, magical casltes, dollies etc. maybe 7 or 8 items he was interested in. i wish there was just a little bit more imagination given when putting these books together - boys like making things too! i gave it to a 5 year old girl instead and she loved it - hence 4 stars.

Some good ideas
I bought this book for ideas of things to do with my three and a half year old. She enjoys the idea but most of the projects are too complex to sustain her attention until the end. Read more
