My boys love to create things and so we enjoyed looking through 123 I Can Build, written by Irene Luxbacher. There are several projects that are kid-friendly and encourage kids to use their imagination. Included are step-by-step directions on how to complete the projects, along with pictures. My favorites were the Mushroom Mansion, the Ice Castle, and a Perfect Palace! This book is perfect for the young artist in your home.

My 6 year old loves to “build” and create. He’s the kid that, at 8:30 at night, will say “Mom, let’s build a robot!”. Gotta love the enthusiasm. I know he’d love this book.

This would be awesome for my son! He is always making things out of paper and cardboard tubes.
I take my son to woodworking workshops twice a month, and he would love this!
I want to win because my older son is showing a huge interest in building and inventing things. I want to encourage that in him, so he’ll invent something awesome, get rich, and take good care of me when I’m old.

I would like to see my toddler granddaughters use their imagination and creativity to build something rather than pull a toy out of a box. I think this book would give them some great opportunities to do so:)
