Customer Reviews

Fun cards!
There are only a few cards in this book (9) but there are very clear instructions, and some very original designs - especially the spooky woods card, and a pop-up dinosaur. I didn't realise this was a children's book before looking at it but it has given me some great ideas for cards for children to receive as well as to make. There is also a very useful page on equipment and techniques so that you can have all items ready in advance and then use this perhaps on a rainy day to keep children amused whilst using their creative skills.
