I am delighted to find how a simple shoe print shape inspires children to achieve such amazing creativity and imagination with their drawings. The steps are easy to follow and the results are wide open to each child's unique style and design. Highly recommended! MaryAnn F.

Kids will be drawn into Shoe Print Art like a magnet!
