A natural companion to The Kids' Book of Paper Love, with TK copies in print, The Kids's Book of Sticker Love is packed with tons of creative ideas and crafty projects for kids to make with their hands, paper goodies to create and decorate, and stickers of all stripes: vinyl stickers, glow-in-the-dark stickers, glitter and metallic stickers, photo corners, alphabet stickers, and more. Put it all together and you've got hours and hours of screen-free fun. Organized in four sections, there's stuff to Craft--like a set of origami finger puppets with animal eyes, ears, whisker and nose stickers, or a geometric necklace to make out of colorful dot stickers and paper cutouts. There's a Write section--use colorful alphabet stickers to compose a note; record your favorite things in seasonal DIY notebooks. Next is a Play section--have fun with projects like sticker-based tangrams. And a Share section--decorate your bedroom ceiling with classic glow-in-the-dark star and constellation stickers, or cut and fold tiny patterned paper gift bags and seal them with a matching sticker.
No matter the activity, the emphasis is on the doing--and finding the pleasure and value that comes with the creative process. Irene Smit and Astrid van der Hulst are the co-founders and creative directors of Flow magazine, the international publication that, with its unique combination of paper goodies and beautiful illustrations, celebrates creativity, imperfection, and life's little pleasures.
