Looks to be an excellent book! Lots of great ideas to keep kids buy, but they're not just dumb wasteful and unimaginative craft projects. They're useful thing to make that are based in science or good practical items that are fun for kids to make and use.
I'm really glad I have this in my collection. It would be great for elementary and middle school homeschoolers.

Steven Caney wrote this hippified book of children's games, and there's a subversive streak in there deep down. A grubby DIY aesthetic - let your kids play in the garbage! They'll make plastic swans! Everything is pure fun.

Beautiful 70's images of children making things. Good ideas for construction projects and refreshing 70s enthusiasm for child-centered parenting and teaching.
