From demolishing a building to constructing a skyscraper, this fun activity book—with more than 250 stickers—shows children how things get built! Excavate. Lay the foundation. Create beautiful bridges and structures. This colorful sticker book takes children right onto a construction site to follow the entire building process from start to finish. They’ll even learn what dangers lurk in the scaffolding, machines, planks, and concrete! As they go along, kids can use the stickers to decorate the scenes in any way they like. Each spread features things to look for, find, and count, as well as fun facts and questions. A treasure hunt activity at the end encourages youngsters to go back and spot things they may not have noticed before.
