This book has a great deal of simple and easy crafts anyone can do. These are creative and explained simply. The crafts in this book are great for at home or in a learning environment.

We are all stuck with ourselves so let’s create. Making your own creations stimulate pleasure and satisfaction. . This book ontains a complete materials list, clear step-by-step photographs of the process, as well as finished samples. The activities are open-ended, designed to be explored over and over, often with different results. Projects are geared toward being guided by adults projects are designed for a range of ages and skill levels. My favorite project was the T- shirt tote bag.

This might be the most perfectly timed book ever with the current state of the world. This is such a fun idea and I love that it's called craft lab - showing that crafts can be fun, productive AND educational/useful for kids. There are so many fun ideas here. I'm definitely going to recommend this to my friends with kids.

It is a wonderful book with 52 really easy projects for kids to do. I love craft and this book helped me a lot in keeping my sanity safe during this lockdown period. The projects as I said are very easy so that kids can make them. This book is a wonderful gift for kids (I love it although I am not a kid right now). I thank Quarto Publishing and NetGalley for giving me this wonderful opportunity and filling my head with wonderful ideas.

My 9 and 12 year old are BONKERS for this book. Jam-packed with a huge variety of current craft projects where kids will make things that they'll actually use. All of the supplies are easy to come by from your local craft store if you don't already have them on hand. Super easy to follow instructions with step-by-step photos.

Thank you to Quarto Publishing and NetGalley for allowing me to preview this book in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are my own.

I received an advanced reader copy of this book to read in exchange for an honest review via netgalley and the publishers.

This is a fantastic book of easy craft ideas for kids to do independently or with a grown up. Some require materials to buy but these are inexpensive materials. There's something in this book for everyone's likes, male or female.
Thus is a great book for filling time, spending time together or for projects or challenges.

Fab book for primary aged children. This has a real mix of crafts that are simple and quick through to more detailed and in depth, there should be something for everyone and as a parent it certainly has sparked some inspirational ideas to keep the children busy!
Not all of these crafts are to be done with what you may have lying around so planning will need to be done but I think all of the ideas would be a hit with my children.

The book is well laid and talks directly to the children, it keeps the details light and the instructions clear and to the point, there are various tips throughout and can be helpful with ‘the next project’ or to give it a little twist.

Craft Lab for Kids
52 DIY Projects to Inspire, Excite, and Empower Kids to Create Useful, Beautiful Handmade Goods
by Stephanie Corfee
My boys and I love to craft. Supplies get expensive and there are only so many projects I can keep. With that I love the idea of up cycling things. This book has so many fun projects and many of them are reusing items. I loved all of the ideas turning trash to functional treasures. All the project ideas shared in this book were great. There was something for every kind of kid. From apparel to accessories to décor the Craft Lab for Kids had an idea for you. The projects were easy to follow and fun to complete!

This book would be a wonderful addition to any family’s book collection. Especially good for whenever kids are stuck home and getting bored. The crafts mostly can be made using items around the house as well as be adapted to what is available. It’s a good starting place to give kids experience and confidence in their artistic and math skills. Pictures showcase the projects steps, which will help a lot. Mostly though, believe adults will find a craft or two to try themselves. I liked the pocket warmers. This is one book that can be used over and over again for years.

A super book for inspiring children to try their hands at a variety of craft projects. The illustrations and photographs are beautiful and will encourage anyone to have a go. Some projects do require specialist materials that you probably wouldn't have on hand immediately, but many could be adapted and used as a springboard to create something else. There are projects suitable for all ages and abilities and some more basic than others. A great book to have on hand when all the kids are at home looking for something to do.

It’s a cute book with some fun ideas for kids.
My girlfriend works with kids with some difficulties and for them a lot of these are a bit too difficult.
I like the little tips for small hands and the teachable moments. Mind you this craft book is not for the youngest kids.

I'm very impressed by this book. While I don't like all the projects, the majority are just as advertised: projects kids would really be interested in doing. They're doable with common art supplies, too, unlike many similar books which require bizarre supplies. Very timely publication for parents and art teachers suddenly trying to come up with at-home art lessons for children. Unless I just missed it, there's no guidance in the book re: intended age ranges, but I would estimate most projects are for kids 6-12 years old.

Some of the projects are not just upcycling friendly but intended for refashioning or embellishing items you already have. I also appreciate that there's an entire chapter of 15-minute projects. That can come in very handy for parents as well as kids with short attention spans.

The only thing I don't like about this book is that I'll have to wait to try most of the projects with my son because he's too young.

This is a wonderful book full of unique crafts for kids and teens to make. We will be using this book this summer to be creative. It has clear instructions and many colorful pictures to help.

This book has a lot of interesting ideas. It is easy to understand and reaches a range of ages. Most of the crafts seem fun for kids and fairly easy to do. Some of them seem a little harder to have the materials on hand or could be considered destructive. It is definitely full of ideas and will keep kids busy and creative.

4 stars
Great ideas to do with kids. Especially now that the kids are home from school. I love to do crafts with the kids, and it passes the time.

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!
