My Thoughts
I think craft/activity books are a great choice for those buying for our youth. The range of craft projects in this book will be sure to interest ages 7-12 years. There's simple instructions for projects that include, cutting, embroidery, fusing, masking, modelling, painting, planting, printing and weaving.
