The projects in Global Art allow children to explore the world through art with a process, not a product, approach. It combines the fun and creativity of art with history, geography and the diversity of cultures from around the world.' Review: Such a cool book for younger kids! - This book is broken up by continent and then country. Each continent has a bibliography of books to go with, mostly kids books by the looks of it. Then every art project has a blurb about how it relates to the country. This is such a fun learning tool! Review: Excellent ! - Très bon livre qui permet d'allier la découverte d'un pays à son artisanat... avec des activités différentes et variés (découpage, collage, cartonnage, cuisine, tissus...) Ma fille de 4 ans est très en demande et les grands aiment bien aussi l'aider, voire en faire un de plus :) (avoir un niveau satisfaisant en anglais pour une bonne compréhension)

I can't wait till my kids try it out!
I ordered this book as a Christmas gift for my kids ages 4 and 7. They love art, and I love the idea of doing art projects from around the globe. It came in the mail yesterday and flipping through it, I am very pleased and excited for Christmas to come so my kids can try some of the projects. It has a rating system to help you with picking projects which is nice.

The crafts are unique, but illustrations underwhelm my child.
The book is full of unique craft ideas from all over the world. The instructions are wonderful and clear. We have had most of the matieeals on hand (but not all of them). My only complaint is that there are no photos of the finished product - just rough black and white illustrations... Which does not excite my 4.5 year old very much. When reaching for a craft book, she never reaches for this one and she says it's because her other craft books have coloured photographs of each craft, which helps her to better understand what the craft is and what it will look like... So, it's a good book, lots of creative ideas, but no photos. Just rudimentary illustrations.

Good book for
I really enjoyed this book and found quite a few lessons that I Intend to try in my classroom. Negatives are that sometimes recommended supplies are unrealistic for the classroom, like homemade clay, etc. would be especially great for home schoolers or private schools with smaller class sizes. Also there is no mention of cultural appropriation which should probably be addressed.
