This book reminds us that creativity is about finding ways to play/create using natural and simple things. Simplicity is the perfect condition for creativity to blossom. This book gives you the guidelines of how to set up your environment so your family can make their own magic. Plus, the book is kind enough to lend some creative ideas for you to try!

This book was a wonderful addition to our family. I have turned to it countless times for ideas, and encouragement. I recommend this book to anyone with children-Waldorf or not!

I've been reading Amanda's blog since the beginning but the book is full of beautiful photographs, her beautiful kids and her craft ideas for beginners as I am were really helpful and I can read it from time to time and find encouragement from her warm words.

I didn't think I would like this book then bought it I don't know why. At first I thought it would be too far out there to do myself but it is great. I'm not the most creative person. So this book had great simple ideas to help my children mold in to more creative people when they age I hope.
I'm not an expert in this feild so I don't know if it recycled, but I say if your just dipping in this book is great.

I checked out this book from the library. I am so happy that I did not spend good money on it. We all want to live a simpler life and have creative children. This book had no original ideas. I have seen many of the same projects and activities elsewhere. I grew tired of her earth worship that seems to be her world view. i.e. Her table blessing thanking the earth, quotes from Rachel Carson, etc. I gave the book one star because it was a compilation of ideas from Martha Stewart. I also was not able to give it zero because Amazon would not let me. If you are a more traditional family and are tired of a hippie mentality this is not the book for you. I have found more creative ideas in books about turning off your tv. Instead you may consider the book, What is a Family by Edith Schaefer. Edith Schaefer had wonderful ideas on how to be creative and simple with your family. Having time outside, time together, celebrating traditions and holidays in your home and going to the library ...
