Product Description

When you learn to awaken your family’s creativity, wonderful things will happen: you’ll make meaningful connections with your children in large and small ways; your children will more often engage in their own creative discoveries; and your family will embrace new ways to relax, play, and grow together. With just the simple tools around you—your imagination, basic art supplies, household objects, and natural materials—you can transform your family life, and have so much more fun!

Amanda Soule has charmed many with her tales of creativity and parenting on her blog, SouleMama. Here she shares ideas and projects with the same warm tone and down-to-earth voice. Perfect for all families, the wide range of projects presented here offers ideas for imaginative play, art and crafts, nature explorations, and family celebrations.

4.0étoiles sur 5 Not just a craft book, a book to savour, Mars 29 2008
Par Maurice Gave "Mud Mama & Papa Pan" (Wolfville, Nova Scotia) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
Yes there are suggestions for games to play, things to make, patterns, and lots of practical advise on creating an atmosphere where kids feel free to explore. Its also about how to create an atmosphere where children feel that you value their creative explorations and your own. BUT what I like best is the way Amanda invites you to look at the world fresh and new, the way your children do, to learn from your children's wonder.

There are lovely quotes on creativity sprinkled throughout by people like Plato, Rachel Carson, Einstein and the book is full of Amanda's beautiful family photos.

I already know, from reading her blog (Soule Mama), that Amanda and I share the same feelings about open ended natural toys and the value of unschooling. What she's accomplished with this book is to share how the philosophy works in real life without ever coming across as preachy or rigidly adhering to a single philosophy, or coming across as perfect. I can see this book inspiring all sorts of people in all sorts of families.

I've been involved with Waldorf inspired home education for a very long time so I was familiar with most of the craft projects she suggested. I'm totally enamoured with embroidering my children's art now, an idea that was new to me. The other thing that was new to me was the idea of craftivism - service projects that touch the local and global community through the act of making homemade necessary objects - like knitting hats and mittens for those in need. I have all sorts of ideas for projects now.

Some people might be wondering if they'll get anything new from this book that they can't get by simply reading Amanda's blog. The most valuable thing to me is that I can turn off the computer and tuck this book in my bag and read it in the stolen moments I get during the day. I can pull it out under a tree in the backyard while the kids set up their Little House on the Prairie scene , milking their imaginary cow (our dog is such a good sport). I can read it in bed while the Sprout nurses off to sleep. The kids can pull it out and pick a project and say "Can we do this today?". It can live in the pile of books on the coffee table and get dog earred being read so many times. This is definitely a book to savour.

3.0étoiles sur 5 A few great ideas., Mars 3 2009
Par Kevin Black "nature's baby" (Edmonton, AB) - Voir tous mes commentaires

I did love the ideas in the book but I suppose I expected that there would be more projects than there were. There is still enough to satisfy but I think it would have been better with more ideas and projects.

5.0étoiles sur 5 A must buy - Excellent, Déc 14 2008
This book is fantastic for anyone who really wants to think about the way their family operates. Full of inspirational, practical advice and ideas it is a simple view on something we all overcomplicate. Amanda Soule speaks with conviction about the importance of creativity but not the grand kind. Her creativity is centred around the kitchen table and the children in her family. I found her ideas inspirational and have already created a few of the projects mentioned. I am also putting together some kits for my son for christmas that will help us learn new skills side by side.

I love the core message of this book which is that creativity is innate in children and it is simply a matter of providing them with the means. She also looks at the inspiration level of the adults and talks about working side by side with our children, modeling our own creativity and satisfaction. This book is one I have referred to many times and purchased for others. I would say it is a must have for any family.
