Now if you're looking to get your kids into needlework, you cant go far wrong with crossstitch. Making a sampler for the Queens Silver Jubilee in 1977 is something I had to do at school. My mum still has it in a draw somewhere and I do remember finding it rather theraputic and relaxing. I certainly got a sense of pride when I finished it.
Get the kids off the phones and tablets and get something tactile into their hands!
This is a great site for free patterns and advice, so go take a look :-)
