I'm not a very gifted handicraft type person at all but I sure do admire those who can turn out handcrafted wonders. Such 'wonders' can be found in this book - they are quite amazing and appear straight forward to make, that is, the "quiet books" for young children.
What a novel idea in these days where parents start their children so young with handphones and such devices. How great it would be to introduce young children to a lovingly crafted (by a mom, aunt, and/or a grandparent and the like) intriquing, hands-on book of sensory delight, games and intellectually engaging experience. This type of gift would be so invaluable, I believe and something I would have liked my own children to have had when they were young.
Details such as fabric or felt choices, stitching tips, patterns/templates ideas for designs, basic 'how-to' instructions and lovely pictures, including teaching how just about anyone could fashion a 'quiet book' for busy young hands. Go for it! I might even give it a try. Ha!
