Kid Made Modern by Todd Oldham

The people at Ammo Books introduced me to this fascinating book, Kid Made Modern by Todd Oldham. I was hooked by the bright pictures and step by step instructions. My daughter found it easy for her to understand as well as her brothers. Todd incorporates things you can find around the house, recycling, and crafts to come up with this fun and inspiring book. It is perfect for our many rainy days around here.

I was impressed with the many projects introduced and how many creative items can be made from items in our recycle bin. My kids take after me and love to create with their hands. When they get bored then tend to get into stuff they shouldn't. You all know exactly what I mean!

When that time happens (which is often) we pull out the book and pick a project. It keeps them entertained and working together quietly . Even my husband loves to get into the book and make project. His favorite was the house made out of cardboard boxes. Can you imagine? My kids and my husband in the living room designing there very own cardboard village. Unfortunately the boys destroyed it and I didn't get a picture of the master piece. *sigh*

Kid Made Modern is the perfect Christmas gift for your young budding artists.
