Heather will demo how to make several fun toys from the book, which contains 101 Clever Creations Using Everyday Items! There will be a craft for both kids and adults to enjoy. Bring the whole family for an afternoon of fun! Facebook RSVP encouraged.

An ingeniously simple and fully-illustrated book for crafting toys from objects found around the house.

This clever guide focuses on fun, homemade projects using materials
anyone can find around the house or that can be purchased for a fraction
of what a commercially-produced toy can cost. Using everyday objects
from cardboard tubing to paper to clothespins, readers will discover how
to make such projects as:

* A milk carton balloon boat

* A rubber band banjo

* A cardboard tube kaleidoscope

* An embroidery hoop tambourine

* And more

Perfect for parents and teachers, these projects enable families to
spend less while keeping entertained. Because fun doesn't always have to
come in a box-sometimes, it's the box itself.
