Just Follow The Instructions And You'll Be Turning Out Toys Like A Pro In No Time! Are you ready to get started on your delightful and fulfilling journey to becoming a skilled toy maker? Yes? Then let's get started! All too often a budding toy maker will rush right out, buy the first craft kit they see at the craft store, grab some materials and tools and head right into their workshop for a weekend of creative fun. Sadly, the experience is usually less than positive. Often the toy ends up breaking or looks so horrible that not even the dog will play with it. All that effort has achieved nothing and the toy ends up in the bin. It is worse still when maybe the child likes the toy and proudly shows it off to his friends, only to have it scorned and scoffed at. They are so hurt that it can make them lose their friends and their confidence - not to mention you losing your own. Before you know it you have decided against trying again and thus you lose the opportunity to let your creative side flow.
