highly recommended, 13 April 2000
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Muppets Big Book of Crafts (Paperback)
I can highly recommend this book for all ages. With a few adjustments my two year old loves the projects and this book can easily carry you through to adulthood. When I opened it I found several projects I rather wanted to do myself. Mediums covered include working with paper (collage, bookmaking etc), molding and modeling, carving, printmaking, sewing projects, making puppets, costumes, jewelry, dying fabrics, making your own dollhouse and so much more. All of the projects are rated according to difficulty and there are chapters too on safety, setting up your own craft studio and more. Full of color illustrations, interesting facts about the making of the Muppet Show, and humor. I love it. A book with serious longevity - I'm sure that some day my grandchildren will love it too.

What a find!, 28 Mar 2000
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Muppets Big Book of Crafts (Paperback)
This book not only provides excellent, well illustrated craft ideas, but it is peppered throughout with the creativity and fun of the muppets! Not only does the book detail the steps for the activities, it provides suggestions on setting up a work space, as well as safety tips. Each chapter deals with a different medium and within the chapter the projects progress in difficulty. This is wonderful for finding a project in a specific medium for different age/ ability levels.

A Fantastic Find!, 25 Nov 2000
By AHT "SAH Mom" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Muppets Big Book of Crafts (Paperback)
I have a four children and a huge library of children's craft books. There are very few really great children's art books. This is one of them. If you work with children at all, add this to your library, you won't be sorry. This book provides the recipes for many old standby crafts but also offers many inventive and new ways to assemble beautiful works of art. I am a strong proponent of art for children and I believe in projects that produce something the child can be proud of that is long lasting. It is very rare that a children's book is written that has more than two really good projects. Here, they are all wonderful. The section on carving sculptures out of sponges and the muppet recipe for stone is inspiring. I also found this book entertaining with all of the information on muppets scattered throughout the book. It is a great value and a book you will love!
