 Wealth of ideas but many need prep September 20, 2008
My son enjoyed some of the activities in the toddler book, so I got this one too and had about the same reaction. There's a lot of good ideas in here to keep kids busy, but a lot of them need prep time. None of the activites they list are hard to do, but there aren't a lot of "spur of the moment" ideas. The best thing to do is to read the entire book, pick out 3-5 activities you think your child(ren) would like, and put the materials for those activities in a set place, like a box or a bin. When the kids get bored with those activities, go back to the book and start over. All in all I like this book series, it's got a lot of great ideas. Just expect to lay a little groundwork...
Busy Book July 14, 2008
I love this book. There are so many great activities that are easy to do to help keep your preschooler busy. I also have the toddler book and love that one. Great books!
Full of Great Ideas! FUN!! July 10, 2008
I bought this book to help my younger children, ages 4 & 2, keep busy as I homeschooled the older ones. The activities were simple enough for them to do and very fun. We do several different activities a week and my children love it. The older ones try to join in, too! Most activities asked for ingredients that are common around the house so I didn't need to spend additional money accumulating ingredients. I recommend this book to anyone who has run dry of ideas to keep your preschooler busy.

Love this book and it provides a lot of great ideas. I use this book to plan play dates, birthday parties, and to plan fun things to do while traveling and staying with family. We use it a lot and my daughter (and friends) really enjoy the projects. Some of the painting projects are ambitious, but the few that we tried were great fun.
