Capstone Debuts “Make Stuff” Section on Children’s Website CapstoneKids.com, New Area Provides Fun, Hands-On Activities for Young Readers

Minneapolis, MN, February 17, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Capstone, the leading publisher of children’s books and digital products and services, debuts “Make Stuff”, a new section on its website CapstoneKids.com, a free resource featuring safe and appropriate content for children. The new area of the commercial-free site provides step-by-step instructions for children on projects from many of Capstone’s popular how-to book series such as Paper Airplanes, Build It Yourself, and Halloween Extreme.

The “Make Stuff” section consists of six categories of activities: Recipes, Crafts, Projects, Fold It, Magic Tricks and Drawing. Using common and easy-to-find items, each one of the activity types features at least two hands-on projects that entertain children and teach them how to follow written instructions to reach a final goal.

“CapstoneKids.com extends the learning experience beyond the book by providing kids with content that truly captivates their imagination,” said Matt Keller, Chief Marketing Officer of Capstone. “The site has become an increasingly popular part of our web presence and the new ‘Make Stuff’ section is sure to only add to this popularity. The projects are fun and exciting and the step by step instructions are easy to follow making it a must visit for young readers of all interests.”

In addition to the creation of the “Make Stuff” section, the website has undergone updates on its popular “Characters” area. With the inclusion of Capstone’s spring 2011 titles and their popular characters, along with book trailers, readers can now get all the information they want about any of their favorite protagonists at the click of a mouse.
