What reviewers said
"Awesome Architecture Activities for Kids offers meaningful, three-dimensional architectural projects for children using readily available materials."
"What a wonderful collection of ideas to encourage children to build things! I know they love the sense of making something that didn't exist before, so they are going to love this book!"
"This book encourages learning in my favorite way—hands-on exploration. I love that it uses things from around the house (or in the recycling bin) and that it gives an idea of how long a project might take. After reading it, my kids were super inspired and raced to the table to start creating their own buildings!" —Lisa-Marie Fletcher, author How to Homeschool in Canada: A Travel Guide for Your Homeschooling Journey and creator of The Canadian Homeschooler website
"Awesome Architecture Activities for Kids will provide hours of enrichment, engagement, and entertainment for all types of learners and thinkers. It offers outstanding STEAM-based opportunities for kids who thrive when making, doing, and experimenting." —Katie Brickner, Editor of Scholastic Art magazine, Executive Editor of Mary Glasgow Magazines
