Craft Lab for Kids is an excellent source of craft ideas for the mature child crafter. These crafts could not be done independently by younger children, but would be great for interactive parent and child activities. My daughter is ten and was very excited about the crafts offered and how she could do them in a way that made them her own. This book will make a great gift book or summer fun book.

I received a free digital ARC from NetGalley. This is hands-down my favorite series of activity books. They are easy to follow instructions with a good balance of photos and text. The projects are original and giftable.

Great book for little craft bits. Very easy to follow and some brilliant little projects are included

Easy projects to fill some of those boring hours we're living through right now.

The craft projects are varied enough to entertain both boys and girls. I'm sure you can get all age groups interested, from kindergarten to teenagers; even I found some projects I'd like to make myself.

Thank you, NetGalley and Quarto, for a complimentary copy of this book! This review reflects my personal opinion!

As I was looking through ARCs, my daughter (8) walked by and immediately got excited! So I decided to read this book with her. We have already made a few of the projects in this book (before we got the book). The instructions are easy to understand since most of the steps are shown in photos. My daughter and her peers are definitely a great target group for this book. We can't wait to try some of the other and more complex projects. This will be a fun way to keep the kids entertained!

This book has a great mix of easier activities that many children will be able to do independently and activities to be done with an adult. The range of activities is great too - toiletries, games and toys, gifts, party preparation ideas and things to just enjoy making. This books would make a lovely gift for any child who would like to try activities with a bit more of a purpose.

This is a pretty standard book of craft projects for kids. Most of them are pretty typical ones that most parents and child care workers are familiar with, and many require you to purchase items to make them (bath bomb molds, leather bracelets, fusible bonding, etc.). Typical projects are painting a yoga mat with acrylic paints, making a donation jar for change, making a t-shirt tote and dip dyeing a canvas bag. There were only a few projects that I made a note to try with my kids (such as fleece hand warmers filled with rice and the t-shirt tote, which we've done before but it reminded me to do again) but parents or teachers who are new to crafting are likely to find some good inspiration.

Many of the crafts reminded me more of ones you'd do at camp than just rainy afternoon crafts, especially as so many of them needed purchased materials. That said, there are detailed instructions and lots of color photos, and I think it's a book that will work for a lot of folks.

I read a temporary digital ARC of this book for the purpose of review.
