All it takes to have fun for days is just a stick of chalk and this book of really great games and activities There are so many different things you can do with chalk on the pavement or the playground - such as writing messages, competing at chalk toss, drawing an obstacle course with a narrow road to follow on blades, bike or scotter. Chalk it alone or with friends - the ideas are endless Artistic and Creative Games: Drawing; Decorating; Doodling; Calendar Festivities; Writing Poetry; Rebus Messages; Alphabet Art; Timelines; Classic games presented in a modern style: Hangman; Noughts and Crosses; Hopscotch; Pavement Bowling; Pavement Darts; Step-by-step instructions for making your sticks of chalk using Plaster of Paris, water and paint.

This a great book! I received it as a gift for my daughter who is almost five. The games are thoughtful and creative. It contains wonderful activities to help your child grow (mentally and physically). It even includes a history on chalk and instructions on how to make your own. It would make a terrific addition to any child's library or gift. Also, I'd revise the age suggestions. You could probably use this book from age 2 to early teens.
