- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I thumbed through this book at the University of Washington book store while looking for a gift for a toddler. I bought the book intending to give it as a gift, but ended up liking it and keeping it. The book contains fun activities and recipes for ways create imaginative play, such as moon dough, play dough, paint, slime, etc. which can be made with simple and inexpensive ingredients found in the kitchen. My kids have enjoyed the recipes we've made and ask for more.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Too many recipes of the same product, especially at the beginning of the book. More creative ideas towards the end.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Excellent resource to rekindle the joys of real, fun and non media play. Thanks Asia for your expertise and insight.
