I want to make my kids all of the vehicles in this book. My son especially is a huge fan of anything that vrooms. The possibilities are endless for creativity. At the end of playtime you can reuse or recycle the toys. I think it’s a great alternative to expensive plastic toys that break and destroy the environment.
It teaches our kids to use their imagination and to be gentler with the things they’re playing with.
Fantastic idea.
Good for a large library or a family with a lot of boxes leftover. The limit of only 10 projects makes the purchase hard for those on a budget.
Nice ideas to build out of cardboard. Shows a few tips to make certain edges and accessories. Nice steps shown to help build the vehicle.
This book gives you great ideas to use with different cardboard boxes. It goes into great detail about what you need and how to do it. A child would only be able to chose one of the ideas but all the ideas are good. It uses illustrations alongside text to support it. It is written with children in mind with simple language for them to read.
I am the target audience for this book. My toddler is car obsessed. He loves anything related to vehicles, wheels and engines, so this little book is just perfect for him. We started collecting cardboard boxes in summer, while working on projects from another book by Fiona Hayes, and now we can put them to use to make a model city with all sorts of vehicles.
As always, I have to stress how much I appreciate clear instructions and detailed illustrations and focus on safety in craft books. This book does a wonderful job providing these.
You might argue that the topic is too narrow, but the projects presented in the book can be re-created in a variety of colours and sizes, depending on your imagination and willingness to spend quality time with your child.
Thank you to NetGalley and QEB Publishing for the review copy provided in exchange for an honest opinion.
