Garden Crafts for Children is crammed full of inspirational ideas to get kids excited about gardening and nature. A wheelbarrow vegetable garden, cress caterpillars, an insect hotel and a sunflower alley are just some of the fun and creative ideas in this invaluable book. There are chapters on using creative containers from teapots to rain boots, windowsill gardening with foods such as cress and beans, and beautiful nature crafts such as picture frames and mobiles that can be made indoors. Whether your garden is big or small, and even if you don t have a garden at all, Dawn Isaac s wonderful garden crafts will keep kids entertained, with plenty of projects to fill every season. The 35 projects, perfect for children from ages 3 to 11, are designed to be achievable and affordable with simple-to-follow, step-by-step photographs and clear advice, and there is help on growing and gardening for children and adults alike.

By Mum of Two
Format:Hardcover
I find that craft books for kids can be a bit of a letdown, there are often the same activities in all of them, and generally there are a handful of achievable ones followed by a raft of tricky or grown-up ideas with expensive kit that you would never actually get round to. Gardening books for kids can be even worse. This book is a refreshing change. I can see my kids doing every single idea in this book, and they have picked out the ones to start with already. I like that there are some indoor activities for rainy days and people with no real garden, and I agree with a previous review that lots of them are suitable for school gardening clubs, because they are quite short to do, and easy to supervise several children doing them at once. A good buy as we will definitely get our money's worth out of it.

Fantastic ideas for things to do on sunny days and not so sunny days, some fun and beautiful creations. My children cant wait to get started and neither can I. Also a brilliant resource for anyone running a gardening club for small children or looking for activities for a preschool or infant school. Makes a great gift too.

Packed full of great ideas. We have only had the book for a few hours, but all 3 of my children have selected a garden project to do from the book. Great timing as we are on a school half term. I have to admit I have chosen 2 ideas to try myself (with the help of my children of course!), the garden Jam Jar Garden Lights and the Alpine Wreath. They look fab and fun to do.

Simple projects for children to follow
Many of the activities in this book appear in similar guises in other books. However, the large colourful pictures and informal writing style make this book inviting and engaging.
