The Kids’ Book of Paper Love Book and a $50 Gift Card Giveaway to Michaels!

*Workman Publishing sent me a copy of The Kids’ Book of Paper Love Book and is partnering with me for a giveaway.*

These days kids need some good ole’ fun away from their tech devices. That is why I was happy to be given The Kids’ Book of Paper Love so that my kids can have some fun, outside of the computers and television.This book provides hours of unplugged fun where kids can actually slow down and enjoy the pleasures of paper, to write, craft, play, and share in a screen-free way!  The books begs to be folded, cut up, collaged, doodled on, and shared.

This book is from the bestselling editors of Flow Magazine!  Other Flow books include  A Book That Takes Its Time and 50 Ways to Draw Your Beautiful, Ordinary Life. Now Flow enters the children’s section for the first time with this dynamic new book! This is something your kids will LOVE!

The best part is as your kids flip through the pages, there is a surprise on every page. Some of the fun things you and your kids can do is loop paper strips into a paper chain, snip out bookmarks, fold a paper house, make photo booth props—a silly mustache, a crown—to pose with friends.  Also, you can bind up a DIY storybook and use it to sketch out adventures and dreams or construct a paper flower bouquet, a paper terrarium, a fortune-teller with prompts like lend someone a book and tell them why you recommend it.The Kids' Book of Paper Love Book
