Rating: Summary: Keep This Book On Hand! Review: I had originally checked this book out of the library and didn't want to return it! So I bought it! I kept paging through the book and thinking "I should write this one down, and this, and this . . ." I would have written down every single activity! I keep it on the shelf next to the cook books, but most of the stuff isn't for eating. We liked the recipe for making sandcastles more permanant, how to color sugar for cakes or cookies, coloring sand, making paste, making your own stickers, terrific bubble solution, safe cleaning solutions for around the house and something I've been looking for. . . a recipe for making pretzels! This is a must-have book, especially if you have kids of your own or you teach children. A terrific reference for all the craft projects you need to know to be a fun parent &/or teacher. Although you may think this book is for young kids, it can really appeal to the teenaged set since it gives the concoctions needed for science projects, art or sculpting, making fun or weird food, theatrical makeup for acting, clowning or holloween. Don't grow-up without it!

Rating: Summary: Ideas for children and adults alike, this book is wonderful! Review: Rainy Day Activity has plenty of ideas to keep kids and adults busy, no matter what the weather! The recipes for making clay, bubbles and other fun stuff has kept my daughter happily occupied. Her favorite recipe is for fake scars- you have to try it to believe it! There are many, many ideas here that cannot be found anywhere else. A fresh approach to "Mom, I'm bored!"
Rating: Summary: Awsome Review: This is the best book of it's kind that I have ever seen. My daughter and I love to make all of the things in the book. They are easy and alot of fun. The bath paints have saved me a fortune, because we would buy them and go through them so quickly. This way I can make alot for very cheap and with her help she is learning her colors at the same time. The book is wonderful, highly recommended !
