Receive a beautiful and unusual hardback story book, along with creative ideas for things to write, do, make or cook – all inspired by the book. With a younger child you can read and be creative together, older children might enjoy reading the book and doing the activities on their own.
All subscriptions include a free notebook or sketchbook with your first month! You decide which you would prefer during checkout.
Inspiring Creativity
Each creative activity card includes at least 4 ideas, for example:
- Creating a poem or song inspired by the themes, language or characters in the book, and some steps to get you started.
- Suggestions for creating art with found objects – you might make a lion from autumn leaves that you’ve collected
- A recipe for a fantastic feast featured in the story, so you can enjoy your own edible treats alongside the characters
- Ideas to prompt your inner actor or playwright to imagine what happens next after you close the story book
– the list is endless, it all depends on what creative connections the book itself sparks!
You don’t need any special art supplies or equipment to take part in the activities – just your amazing brain and regular things you’d find at home, such as pens, crayons, paper and glue.
