requiring little if any adult assistance.

Sesame
Street Parents Christmas: Christmas Holiday Projects for Parents
& Children
This book is a very inviting collection of craft, game and gift
ideas for parents and children to do together. I was very impressed
and happy to see that the patterns and illustrated instructions
were all in color because that makes them more attractive and easy
to follow since it is geared toward children as well as parents.

Scrap
Saver's Christmas Stitchery
Many of the projects in Scrap Saver’s Christmas Stitchery
involve quilting, sewing or embroidery. I like that there is such
a wide variety of projects to choose from such as ornaments, quilts,
wreaths, place mats, pot holders, stockings, pincushions, totes,
matching pillow and quilt combos, novelty shaped eyeglass cases,
dolls, tree skirts and much more. Rated 5/5

175
Easy-to-do Christmas Crafts
The first thing I noticed about 175 Easy-to-do Christmas Crafts
is that almost everything you need to make the crafts in this book
are recyclable materials or items you already have around the house.
Christmas
Creations
Each craft is displayed in a two-page spread of colorful photos
depicting the materials used with step-by-step instructions accompanying
the photos. The directions are easy to follow and the final products
are attractive and inspiring.
Crafts
For Christmas
There are a good variety of crafts, using mostly recyclable materials
or things you have on hand at home. The focus of the crafts
aren't completely on the fact that Christmas is a religious or a
traditional holiday so it meets the needs and beliefs of all the
readers.
The
Holiday Wreath Book
The wreaths are colorful, very attractive and well thought out,
but the instructions are more descriptive rather than instructional,
so most of the wreaths would be more appropriate for someone with
experience.
Nature
Crafts for Christmas: A Step-by-Step Guide to Making Wreaths, Ornaments
& Decorations
Bring the outdoors in by using items gathered from nature to make
wreaths, ornaments and decorations from the book Nature Crafts for
Christmas. It is a good idea to get started on the projects from
this book now while the supplies needed are readily available.
The
Christmas Book
The craft ideas and baking activities in The Christmas Book are
great for children to participate in doing. A lot of the crafts
use recycled materials which is not only great for the environment,
it means you probably already have the stuff on hand so the craft
can be done shortly after the children show an interest in the project.
The
Gift of Christmas: Create Ornaments, Floral Arrangements, Gifts
& More
Not only are there a lot of crafts to make, there are additional
sections amongst the main craft ideas such as: More ideas for ornaments,
Quick & Easy Garlands, More Ideas for Tree Skirts, More Ideas
for the Table
Quick & Easy Gift Ideas and Quick & Easy Gift Wrapping,
all of which show photos of the different ideas accompanied by a
brief description of how to do it.
Pioneer
Christmas Crafts
The instructions in this book are very simple and straightforward
making them easy to understand and the craft uncomplicated to do.
There is a handy Sewing Tips section at the back of the book to
demonstrate the Running Stitch, the Overcast Stitch and How to Cross-Stitch.
