KLUTZ | Fancy Friendship Bracelets | Review and Giveaway

Filed under Giveaways
How-to books from Klutz come packaged with the tools of their trade (from juggling cubes to face paints to yo-yos), and are designed for doing, not just reading. “We think people learn best through their hands, nose, feet, mouth and ears. Then their eyes. So we design multi-sensory books,” John Cassidy, the English major says. The appeal of this hands-on approach is borne out by sales figures; Klutz is a fixture on U.S. book and toy bestseller lists, and is available in 24 countries around the world.

Introducing Fancy Friendship Bracelets, the original Friendship Bracelet’s new best friend. We started with super-simple instructions for a flock of all-new bracelet designs. We added five different colors of cord and more than 200 sparkling beads. Then we threw in some stylish charms for good measure. The result is even better than we hoped.
For ages 8 and up
My Thoughts
This book is the perfect gift for my daughter and her best friend! I am so excited for them to get the books for Christmas and then work on their creations together (my daughter knows what they are getting due to me reviewing it, but it’s a surprise for her friend). My daughter and I read through the book and some of the designs are so cool, I wish I was making them with her. They are going to have so much fun and I can’t wait to see what they make. This book is the perfect gift for a girl and her best friend.
I have been given the opportunity to host a cool giveaway for my readers thanks to Klutz. Two winners will win Two Fancy Friendship Bracelets books, one for their child and one to give to their best friend. That way they can make their bracelets together. Please see the rules below to enter!

My daughter and her bff love to have movie nights. Since they’re too young to go to the theater by themselves, I rent them a movie to watch complete with candy and popcorn. They have a blast!

Everyone likes to do something different and the baby doesn’t have a best friend yet. Oldest girl–go to the mall, middle boy–go skate boarding in the park.
Thanks for the chance.
