Want some original, stylish and inexpensive projects to make for your children’s rooms? Want to get creative (and a bit messy!) with your kids? Home Made Simple with Kids is Joanna Gosling’s guide to simple, stylish crafting.

I’m liking

My six year old is absolutely besotted with crafts at the moment. She’d spend all day pouring over craft books and working on projects if I’d let her. For this reason, I’m always on the look-out for lovely craft books. Gosling’s is a really great example because it works for both adults and children. There are some lovely crafts for adults and children to work on together and also some that children can do alone.

I particularly like the way that the crafts are all relatively straight forward and there are many that would engage my daughter. It was also great to see some crafts that would be suitable for boys – too often, craft books are much more focussed on girls.

The conclusion

A lovely book and would be a fabulous present for an 10-14ish year old as they could do most of the activities by themselves. Good fun too, for younger children, but more supervision needed for them.
