The Best Book I've Bought in 10 years June 30, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book is a must.
This book is non-lecturing , honest and simple with the beautiful sound of a mother speaking to you with photo's scattered throughout.
I adore the craft projects in the book Amanda's included for you and your little ones to do. I Love the way that it's set out so you can pick it up and read any part anytime.
I got mine on Friday morning, I'd ordered it from Amanda's site. And 'd read it by Saturday morning. Brilliant.
I then went on eBay and bought loads of musical instruments and Art supplies. My son is loving playing with play dough at the minute. We are going on a nature trail soon to collect loads of goodies to craft with.
My favourite part is knowing that Amanda's writing a 2nd book! I CAN NOT wait!!!!
If you are creative yourself, or you want to be with your children- THIS IS A MUST HAVE!!!!!
I hope you all gain what I have from reading this book, I shall treasure it forever.
Dearest Amanda, thank you for writing such a honest, inspiring and positive book. I feel like me and my son who's 18 months can do anything together!
Fabulously inspirational May 10, 2008 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
Brings together all of the things which I love - family, crafting, homemaking, cooking, planting, thrifting etc etc. Never found someone who incorporates into their life all those aspects to which I aspire! Fabulously inspirational - and projects all shown with instructions. My 3 year old has already done some sewing and I've changed the layout in my family room to incorporate a space to get my sewing machine out permanently!
Excellent! April 21, 2008 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
I honestly love this book. I have just about put it down since it has arrived and have been quoting it to everyone I come across! I've been inspired to look at the way my children play in a new way and to look at them for ideas for various projects I'm involved in! Excellent book much anticipated and it hasn't disappointed! Love it!
A must for all parents of any age children March 30, 2008 10 out of 10 found this review helpful
This book is really inspiring. There are so many ideas of what to do to make you and your kids be so much more creative and shows you how to think about activities in a new light. It is really thought provoking just like Amanda's blog. This should be a must on every parents book list as it shows you that expensive battery driven toys, computer games and television aren't the only things to keep your kids amused there are other ways and along the way you may become more creative yourself.
A must read and a great gift to give other parents.
