Here is an amazing book for the 3+ age group. I even drew a couple of bugs. I can't draw. Each bug has step-by-step instructions on how to draw them. Then it gives you a scene to draw them on and color. If that isn't enough fun, you get true facts about the bug. On the last page is a surprise I'm going to leave as a surprise. I highly recommend this book for the joy it will bring when you know that you can actually draw!!!!!!
Oh, my goodness; this is delightful. I taught kids for years and I think a bit older than the ages suggested) would like this too because it gives consecutive instructions on how to draw bugs, crickets, beetles, butterflies, etc. Even kids who don't think they have artistic ability will be charmed into trying their hand (with such easy-to-emulate art).
