In a recent article about encouraging children to read, sheknows.com writer Mary Fetzer recommended The Best of Sewing Machine Fun for Kids as a fun crafting book for children to read and try. The book is designed to teach children how to sew on a sewing machine, in a fun and engaging manner.
The goal of the interactive book is to expand “successful skill-building experience and to develop sewing self-confidence” for children. The authors, Nancy Smith and Lynda Milligan, claim that this book will cure the “I’m bored, What can I do?” syndrome. The sheknows.com article reiterates this idea about children beating their boredom.
Some children love fairytales, others prefer factual books. ‘Animal fact books are almost always a sure bet,’ advises [educational expert Wendy] Zachrisen, especially those with real-life photography instead of illustrations. Add books with hands-on elements – craft books, cookbooks and how-to books.
The idea of interactive reading appeals to children, teaching them to read and absorb new information. The Best of Sewing Machine Fun for Kids focuses on “a little encouragement [that will help] open the door to a lifetime of creative adventure. Creative kids are happy kids!”
