Kids and Toy Making
Hi! Are you a new or recent visitor to my blog? I hope you stick around and have a bit of a read. To make it easier to keep up to date with new content, please subscribe to my RSS feed. Of course, feedback is always appreciated and leaving a comment is a great way for me to come and check out your site.
This might be old news to the American readers as we get our overseas magazines late here but I wanted to mention it anyway. In the Winter 2005 edition of Kids magazine (previously Martha Stewart Kids) there was an 8 page spread about making toys that had an emphasis on getting kids to draw a creature and then sewing up a toy from that design. Glad to see they are up with the trends on the internet.

The fun thing about softies is they can be as simple or as complicated as you like and still look fantastic. [...]

Hey, I love this idea. Although I have never really made anything crafy before (I’m one of those with ten thumbs!) but with my first baby due to arrive in less than 3 weeks, I am thinking about making some nice and SAFE homemade soft toys for him. I was even thinking about making him cloth books instead of the commercially available ones. Do you have anything on cloth books?
By the way, I think your blog is awesome! I just started a link sharing community to collect all valuable parenting information. Would you like to be featured on my website so that more people can get to know your blog?
Thank you so much!
