Nature's Art Box

I learned about this while looking at the press release from Toys R Us on 2008's expected toy trends. I googled it and all I've found is a book that was released in 2003, so either Toys R Us is behind or I'm lost.

Anyway, Nature's Art Box by Laura C. Martin is listed under the trend earth-friendly fun, along with Green Toys' recycled milk-jug toys. Here's what Toys R Us had to say:

This wonderful arts and crafts resource explains ways that kids can make paints and inks from flowers and other plants, and much more.

I think teaching kids how to make their own paint from nature is totally cool. You can read the rest of the press release here.
