It includes bright, easy-to-make items that appeal to both girls and boys and range from a friendly flowerpot and pencil-top snake eraser to a butterfly picture frame and space-age mobile with rocket ships and stars.nbsp; Plus, kids are encouraged to think imaginatively and to choose their own favorite designs, decorations, and colors—not just follow what’s on the page.
