Gr 3–8—This series hits the sweet spot for fun, casual activities—neither particularly challenging nor too time-consuming. Whether crafters chooses to paint a rock or decoupage a pair of shoes, these are projects that require manual focus but not much intellectual involvement; ergo, they are perfect for doing while hanging out in a group. Liberal use of washi tape, glitter, and tissue paper make for projects with an emphasis on pretty and decorative in addition to their more purposeful uses. Instructions are fairly minimal, but with a little patience and experimentation—and perhaps advice from friends—good results can be had.
From "fancy pencils" and fabric-embellished computer keyboards (Back-to-School) to infinity scarves and decoupage sunglasses (Accessory), tweens will enjoy each book's appealing craft projects detailed in simple step-by-step directions with bright photos. Most materials and tools are common, but a few, such as washi tape, are more specialized. A recipe for a snack or beverage concludes each book. Reading list. Review covers the following Snap Books: Lazy Crafternoon titles: Accessory Projects for a Lazy Crafternoon and Back-to-School Projects for a Lazy Crafternoon.
