description: In this high-tech age, kids can really use some high-touch alternatives that encourage creative self-expression. Created for the crafting pleasure of 7-12-year-olds and their parents, these activities, based on the PBS television program Hands On, provide youngsters with dozens of imaginative, fun projects. The child-friendly format features colorful, full-size patterns and artwork created by children themselves--and, best of all, it takes only 20 minutes (and everyday items) to complete each of these holiday decorations, gifts, ornaments, windsocks, and other projects. They'll love giving their Valentine's hearts in a special frame, adorned with bows. Kids won't have a cow trying to find their place in a book with a cow bookmark, made with a wooden stick and acrylic paints. A rainbow suncatcher will brighten up any child's bedroom. Plus--fish masks, school magnets, wacky alien pencil toppers, spooky spider gloves, snowman family ornaments, foil-embossed greeting cards, pinecone topiary, garden necklace, giraffe switchplate cover, turtle mousepad, and more.
