Books with title Stay After School

After School Crafts is ideal for working parents who want to slow down the pace and enjoy some real fun with their children, and a great way for kids themselves to develop important new skills. This impressive collection of safe, easy craft projects involves kids ages 6 to 12 in such activities as cooking, painting, molding clay, cutting, drawing, pasting, and writing. It also teaches the use of colors, shapes, numbers, letters, language, and other essentials. Projects include coffee filter snowflakes, a baby food jiggle jar, a shoebox Valentine, a balloon basket, tissue paper water drop art, an eggshell mosaic, a pin cushion, and a variety of Christmas decorations, each of which can be completed in an hour or less using materials commonly found around the house.

Robert Stanek has selected an irresistible combination for this age group--loveable critters and exciting reading adventures. In this story, Lass has to stay after school but she doesn't want to. She'd rather go outside and play with her friends. She is surprised when she has fun and makes a new best friend. The wonderfully-crafted story is paired with energetic illustrations and playful examples that help children discover the world around them and the joy of reading.
