The other day, a friend of mine showed me the cutest Maisy book she bought for her granddaughter - Maisy's House and Garden. I can imagine any three to five-year-old would be thrilled with the cute "carousel" style play house book, complete with stickers and attached furniture, by Lucy Cousins...

Today I'd like to share something I came across last night on Pinterest from Crate Paper Blog - it's a DIY book house like Maisy's! Amazing! Check it out...
I've done several blog posts about the art of paper cutting and paper engineering - including Book Making Ideas for Kids, which featured some "how to" tips and the pop-up art of Robert Sabuda.
TWO INCREDIBLE 3-D "PAPER ENGINEERED" BOOKS:

Make a pop-up butterfly with Robert Sabuda - go here.
Those are beautiful! I've always steered far from pop-up books because my little ones always rip them, but now that they are older, I might be able to buy a few and keep them safely away from the littles. Thanks for this resource :)
ReplyDeletePop-up books are a great way to teach kids about being gentle with books - not for the board book stage. :)
DeleteWonderful pop up books, the Alice is especially clever. I was looking at it recently in a very special library in Manchester.
ReplyDeleteLoved your post about the library and your miniature Canadian Goose!
