Create Excitement and Ease Back to School Stress with New Free eBook from FaveCrafts

June 26, 2013 - PRLog -- Nothing incites fear in the hearts of children during summer vacation quite like the three words "back to school." However, before they know it, the weather will begin to cool and the shelves will fill with school supplies, fall clothes and more. Help kids ease back into a more rigid school-year schedule by associating the season with creativity and fun. Crafts can not only help kids get excited for school, but they can also serve as an educational tool during the summer. Luckily, the latest free eBook from FaveCrafts is filled with craft projects and ideas to get parents, students and teachers excited to begin another school year.

According The Anxiety and Depression Association of America, "Anxiety disorders affect one in eight children. Research shows that untreated children with anxiety disorders are at higher risk to perform poorly in school, miss out on important social experiences, and engage in substance abuse." Children need a safe, comfortable environment at school so they can feel confident to learn and grow. The more a inviting the classroom, the more likely a student will want to attend class and actively participate. Additionally, if a student can feel confident about handmade school supplies and other school-related projects, he or she will be able to look at school as a fun, inviting place, rather than a source of anxiety.

Students, parents and teachers can use the projects featured in 11 Teacher-Approved Crafts for School (http://www.favecrafts.com/Back-to-School-Kids-Crafts/11-T...) to decorate and save money on school supplies. Projects like Scraptastic Notebooks (p. 29) and Colorful Fabric Book Covers (p. 7) are fun alternatives to store-bought supplies. Kids can show off their work at school and take pride in their supplies, rather than simply using a generic item they plucked off of a convenience store shelf. Additionally, teachers can create projects like the Back to School Chalkboard to decorate the classroom and provide a more inviting atmosphere.
