More Than Moccasins
A Kid's Activity Guide to Traditional North American Indian Life
by Laurie Carlson

Here are more than 100 illustrated crafts and activities that encourage kids to have fun and be creative as they learn about Native American life and values. There are projects that reveal the essentials of everyday life to make, games to play, snacks to taste, and songs and dances to perform. Amidst all the fun, kids will discover traditions and skills handed down from the people who first settles North American, including how to plant a garden, make useful pottery, and communicate through Navajo code talkers, While preschoolers enjoy activities with supervision, older children can follow the directions on their own to make more sophisticated versions of the many crafts.

Laurie Carlson is the author of Kids Create! and EcoArt! The mother of two sons, she has taught preschool, primary grades, and children's art classes.
