Quick Crafts for Parents Who Think They Hate Craft

Summary



If the thought of getting crafty with your children fills you with glittery dread then this book is for you.

Quick Crafts for Parents Who Think They Hate Craft is packed with 40 projects free from crazy origami to lose your cool over and PVA glue to clean out of everyone’s hair. Get creative with your children even if you’re short on time (or patience).

Split into 4 sections: play with it, wear it, spruce it up and useful things, all of the crafts have been created to ensure that play can continue once the crafting is over. Go on a swashbuckling adventure complete with pirate hook and sword, whale watching in the bath or a leafy jungle safari with hairy baboons and rattling snakes.

Crafting doesn’t have to leave you cranky and the floor sticky!
