Architecture for Kids: Skill-Building Activities for Future Architects

This book is really good! I was looking for a good kids book for someone who’s interested in architecture and blueprints. I found done at multiple libraries and I looked on Amazon for a long time. This one had high reviews so I decided to give it a try and I’m so glad I did! It’s exactly what I wanted. I put a video with a flip through in it so you can see inside because I wish someone had done that and I was looking for it. If you’re on the fence, I would definitely get this. It has info about a topic and then a place to sketch and an idea to do a small hands on project. My son did the first page as soon as it arrived and he read about different foundations (and different needs for different types of ground), he used index cards to build a structure and then built that same structure on top of a tray that was floating on water. It was really fun and helped him to really understand the topic. We can’t wait to do the rest of the book!

Nice book. Interesting content. Purchased as a gift for a 12 yr old girl. I think she’ll enjoy it

My son enjoyed this book - it's a combination of practice exercises, tips and facts. I would say it is good for ages 8-11. I do like that it covers only one topic at a time in a way that is clear and easy to understand. We gave it a present and he read it for many days.

This is great book 📖 for referential sourcing, although it's for younger students, but overall the basics are guidelines for learning architecture as a lifelong skill! Enjoy this product!!

Nice book for kids , you need to look through the book to see what items will be needed like a protractor

Beautiful, Educational Book- Actually, there is so much information, that we think this book would be appropriate for children years older than the suggested age.

This was a great introduction into many facets of architecture. From art to function, planning to materials, history to new applications this book has a bit of everything. Activities involved drawing, imagination and practical creativity. Used for a class of 10-14 year olds and it was a great resource.

Book looks very interesting. Arrived damaged even tho shipping box was ok. Happy amazon can do an exchange

Muy buen libro para jóvenes con interés para la Arquitectura

Sehr gut

Do you have a curious kid ? Have you already exhausted all other book options like puzzles, doodles and such ? This is the book you should get next . I’m an interior designer and graphic designer and I bought this book for my nephew . The story goes like this. My little nephew , who’s 7 , has come for vacations and was carrying this book with him. I was immediately taken by the title and goodness gracious..!!! fell in love with it so much that I begged my nephew to give it to me !!!! Imagine asking a 7 year old to part with his things !!! He twiddled around a bit on that ask and lo and behold !…. gently came over to me on the last day of his departure and gifted it to me ! Meanwhile, I knew I had to have a fair exchange , and Amazon did have this book so I ordered it and I gave him a brand new copy and took his scribbled one . I open it some days when I miss him . It’s got wonderful creative drawings page by page . It’s amazing how a heavyweight subject like Architecture has been made understandable and immersive by the author. It’s not intimidating at all. And actually guides a young mind towards spatial thinking. Must say, this book has got to be in every kid’s playbox.

My daughter loves this. Very well written.

Reçu le livre rapidement. Commandé pour mon fils de 11ans qui est passionné d'architecture et qui se débrouille bien en anglais. Ce sera son cadeau de noël donc je ne peux pas vous donner plus de détails mais à l'air très intéressant avec des activités à faire et beaucoup de choses à apprendre !
