Product Description

Help your crafty kids or grandkids discover a fun, engaging side of the Faith with these simple, creative activities and projects--no technical expertise required!

Whether the setting is a classroom or your home, the index makes it easy to pick the right project. All craft books show you how... Some craft books tell you why... This craft book helps you show them "The Way."

This is a book to help encourage Catholic children to investigate and celebrate their native creativity. It is also a book written to help teachers and leaders in Catholic schools and other youth programs find craft activities to go along with their lessons. Although not all the crafts are "religious" per se, they can all be used in a religious context. That's where the creativity of parents, teachers, and leaders comes in. The book is arranged under broad topics to help the adult find which craft can most easily adapt to their lesson plan.

This book has crafts appropriate for young children through teenagers. Many of the projects are suitable for group activities, and most are also inexpensive to make.

One of the basic premises of art for children is that younger children enjoy the process and do not much care about the product. Thus, the crafts in this book, designed for younger children, allow them to enjoy the process while creating useful and attractive products.
