Summer Fun!

July 23, 2018

Looking for activities to occupy your free time this summer? We have books for any occasion. Road trip? We've got a coloring book for that. Lazy Sunday? How about you try one of our Extreme Stickering Books. Check out these activities and more below!

For laying out by the pool...

Before you spend a day at the pool, mix up one of these delicious and refreshing recipes from The Ultimate Frozen Cocktails & Smoothies Encyclopedia or Essential Juices and Smoothies! Decadent blended concoctions cover every occasion from breakfast to happy hour. These titles contain more than a thousand easy recipes for well-known favorites as well as more exotic—but no less delicious—creations. Understand the nutritional benefits of veggie and fruit ingredients, and find recipes that target specific goals, such as cleansing and detoxifying in Essential Juices and Smoothies, and add a little fun to your weekend with The Ultimate Frozen Cocktails & Smoothies Encyclopedia.
 

 

For getting creative...

Combine stickers, coloring, and a bit of sass, and what do you get? Sarcastickers! This playful book contains 12 artist markers and more than 100 stickers to color for any occasion, including cute animals for kids, warm messages for family and friends, snarky reminders for frenemies, and frame stickers for your own creations. Helpful tips and techniques encourage you to put your creative side to good use through doodling, color mixing, and hand lettering. And for those times when you just want to grab a goofy sticker and lighten the mood, full-color stickers are included.

For the musically inclined...

In Guitar Chords: A Fretboard Sticker Book, you'll learn how to set up your guitar and practice finger picking and strumming patterns. Use the stickers to assign colors to each chord on the fretboard, and you'll create an easy-to-use visual guide that will enable you to practice with ease. As your skills progress and your repertoire expands, you'll be ready to perform a wide variety of songs with confidence.

For a lazy Sunday...

We have lots of stickering fun available for puzzle lovers everywhere. With just seven simple geometric shapes, Tangrams Sticker Book provides hours of challenging fun for all ages. Each of the 75 puzzles requires you to arrange triangles, squares, and rhomboids in order to create the shape of an object such as an animal, human figure, or vehicle. Using the cardboard practice pieces, readers can figure out the solution before applying the sticker shapes to the page and then decorate the completed figure with more stickers for eyes, mouths, and tails.

For your road trip...

Next time you hop in the car for a few hours, pack your pens and pencils too! Bring along Ultimate Coloring National Parks: A Colorful Adventure Into the Great Outdoors and color along with the scenes outside your window. You will delight in bringing each image alive with the vibrant colors that so richly illuminate the natural landscape, or choose a wild palette and exercise your creativity. A bit of trivia about each park appears opposite the art, so you can learn about the parks as you go through them!
