What are the best arts & crafts for 8 year old boy?
I need to buy something for my nephew ... He loves art, but has all the standard equipment (markers, paint, etc..) I would get him something cool and different. Not something he has already seen, or can easily create at school. I do not want to give him the cardboard cutout cheap kit. Please let me know if you have good ideas! As mentioned, it has all the standard stuff boats. Not looking for something I can easily buy at Wal-Mart or Toys R Us Trying to be a little different.
Search Wargaming_on_a_budget yahoo groups, these guys do great things, if he paints, markers and the glue that could get by doing things like that. These figures are made from wooden spools and buttons and others, I did a bit out clothespins baby flat. Join the group to find ideas and show him some things. most require little or no cut so it should be safe. As I said to consult the group, they have a nice picture of a model someone made. Or Mighty White Cup, they are pretty cool!
