Books in the first-rate Kids Can Do It series continue to give children an opportunity to develop craft skills by providing projects that are both age appropriate and lots of fun. Gifts assumes that children are comfortable in the kitchen and puts as much emphasis on the package as on the culinary product. Instruction for making fudge, for example, is accompanied by ideas for an inventive gift wrap for it. Even though many of the foods are no-cook (fancy salt, flavored vinegar), younger children will need adult help; older ones who like crafts and know cooking basics will do fine on their own.
