Delight young children and encourage play through unique handmade toys. From sewn and stuffed musical instruments to interlocking paper building blocks and wooden animal figurines, the projects in Joel Henriques' Made to Play!: Handmade Toys and Crafts for Growing Imaginations are meant to encourage open-ended play. The projects in this book include a variety of crafts, from drawing to sewing and light woodworking. The toys presented here are made out of wonderfully tactile materials — repurposed fabrics, wood, and paper — and invite opportunities for creative and imaginative play.
