This review is from: Quilting a Thematic Unit: Easy Cross-Curricular Projects and Activities for the Classroom (Paperback)
I used this book with 2nd grade students. The book brought so many more ideas and areas into play. This book was the focus of our entire quilting unit. Many reproducables and hands on activities. The paper plate punch was a big hit.

This review is from: Quilting a Thematic Unit: Easy Cross-Curricular Projects and Activities for the Classroom (Paperback)
The author has written this book WITH kids as well as for kids. She has given us lots of tools to use and to copy that adapt to many situations. I'm writing a program for 200 kids participating in a Vacation Bible School "Prayer Quilt Ministry" that will cover designing quilts and using quilt projects for kids 3-12 and the ideas are all here!
