*contest closed* Draw Star Wars: Clone Wars *Giveaway*

Tuesday, November 17, 2009 Posted by The Mom Jen



Christmas is around the corner, and if I could do all the shopping for my kids at Klutz, I would! Klutz has a plethora of amazing, educational, science-based, crafty toys for boys and girls, and even the young at heart (mom and dad!!). Where else can you find a learning to draw book that sparks a young boy's interest in art as well and incorporate his favorite movie series of all time?

Draw Star Wars: The Clone Wars is packed with tips and techniques, practice space to draw right in the book, and translucent overlays to make you a master of drawing. Start with stick figures, move onto basic shapes, and finish up with the details. Learn to draw 20 different Clone Wars characters.

The book comes with everything you need, including:
-a black marker
-double-tipped metallic — colored pencils
-an always-sharp mechanical pencil
-an eraser


Our Take: My son had mixed feelings when I showed him the book. Thrilled beyond belief how cool the book was, and then nervous and said, "I am not a good artist!" Something I think every 8 year old may say. Taking a book walk, we checked out the pages and started slowly with some basic skills. What this book does teach is techniques like tracing and encourages that even the simple beginning steps can help you learn about shape. After about 4 days working in the book, my son's confidence began to grow, and he began trying something new in his drawings each session. Now we have him saying, "I'm a little bit better at art!" and that is huge for this little guy!

The Draw Star Wars: Clone Wars book sells for $16.95 and would make a great gift for a Star Wars lover as well as an aspiring artist!

Also Klutz is running a national drawing challenge in support of the book release! Head over to the sweeps page, http://www.klutzdesignchallenge.com and you can download a free PDF on how to draw Cad Bane. Then submit your rendition for a chance to win an original full-color illustration of Yoda by book illustrator, Grant Gould. Runners up will each win a copy of Draw Star Wars: Clone Wars.


Thanks to Klutz, I have FIVE (5) copies of the book to giveaway to 5 lucky readers of The Mom Reviews!

    Another book I like is The Klutz Book of Paper Airplanes. I had a book much like it when I was little. I didn't want to cut up my treasured book, so I traced all the paper planes onto new sheets of paper. But that's the kind of kid I was. Thank you for the fun give-away.
