Rosie O'Donnell's Crafty U Book Review
Rosie
O'Donnell's Crafty U
100 easy projects the whole family can enjoy
all year long
The new family crafts book by Rosie O'Donnell, Crafty U, is a
comprehensive book of good-quality ideas and projects with large
full-color photos and clear directions.
Every project has a gorgeous and large photo to show the final result. I
find this is helpful to get the kids excited and to help them pick out a
project. The directions are clear and laid out nicely. It's easy to see
what materials you need.
With 100 projects, there are good variety of classic crafts and new
ideas. They're organized into several themes - Everyday, Spring, Summer,
Fall, Winter, and Rainy Day. The Easter ideas were adorable and not too
hard to do. The Halloween decorations and costumes are especially fun,
too.
The projects are not rated by age, but are simple enough for
five-year-olds and up, with help. They're clearly meant to be done
together, kids and parents. Any areas that a grown-up must do is clearly
marked.
Big thumbs up for this fun and well-done family crafts book.
