From the creators of the wildly popular book, The Ultimate Book of Kid Concoctions comes a second inventive collection of wild potions and crazy crafts--all easily and inexpensively made from common household items. Kids should have a ball creating such wonders as an edible ocean (gummy fish suspended in Jell-O) or a greenhouse grown in a plastic bag. Among the 78 recipes are instructions for making such revolutionary new artistic mediums as whipped cream finger paint, dryer lint clay, and toothpaste putty. Quite a few of the concoctions are edible--chocolate bowls and fruity leather roll-ups sound particularly delicious--while others make great party activities or simple gifts. Almost all the concoctions make a perfect diversion for a bored child on a rainy afternoon. The simple, well-organized instructions make the book easy for kids ages 8 and up to use, though the authors call for adult supervision on all recipes. This is the kind of craft book that's bound to become a family favorite--in time, its large-format black and white pages should be covered with the residue of many hours of messy fun. (Ages 8 to 12) --Marianne Painter

Unhappy
I (and my kids)were very dissapointed by most of the ideas in this book. It did not live up to our expectations created by the commercial on PBS. For example, the dryer lint clay looked great on TV, but it was DISGUSTING...the kids wouldn't even touch it because it smelled so bad.
I am sorry that I bought it.
Best Of Kid Concoctions
I love the second book in the series. All new ideas using household items. Very creative!
Nothing really great but interesting.
Theree wasn't anything I thought that was really great but a couple things I could use with the kids. If I had a choice I would have not bought it.
