Johnston’s premise is that a child’s creative instinct needs materials rather than toys, and the whole book proceeds from what is already to hand: strawberry boxes, string, paper, sand, clay, the workbench, the garden — with instructions plain enough for a child to follow and open enough to be worth following.

A hundred things a child can make from what’s in the kitchen. Download the free EPUB.
