Transport your child into a magical world of woodland creatures where they can play alongside rabbits, squirrels and deer. Create a play tent for a secret hideaway fit for a princess. Unlock a world of adventure with pirates and a Treasure Island map to send them to far-flung oceans. These are just some of the creative and inspirational projects that can be found in Belle & Boo's S IS FOR SEWING, a captivating new making book for you to share with your child.
As well as unlocking your child's creative side the projects contained in the book can also help young children develop core skills such as numeracy through 'selling' felt cupcakes, biscuits and carrots and playing shop. There are also projects that children can help make themselves such as Woodland Masks and Handpuppets, encouraging hand-eye coordination and sparking their interest in making things.
Designed to engage imaginations, most of the playtime projects can be made without any previous experience, but for those keen to learn new sewing skills, or who need a refresher, full instructions for techniques used in the projects are provided, along with templates. For the more experienced crafter there are step-by-step guides to making a cuddly, jointed Honey Bear, or Belle the Rag Doll, complete with her own wardrobe of clothes.
Illustrated with charming illustrations of Belle and Boo and friends created by Mandy Sutcliffe, and colourful photographs by Laura Edwards, S IS FOR SEWING will open up a wonderful make-believe world that is guaranteed to delight and enchant children, and parents, everywhere.
