Don't your kids love interesting craft ideas?
As soon as they can hold a paint brush, children want to create things.
In a child's imagination, a shoebox becomes an undersea world, and a gnarly looking vegetable becomes a grinning creature.
I offer this site to everyone who lives with or works with children.
I've chosen the best, most exciting craft ideas I can find. As well as instructions for each project, I've included photos and age ratings. I'm adding in printable craft patterns too.
I've included a 'Spark' with each project. These are suggestions to encourage kids to take the idea further and interpret it in their own way.
These 'Sparks' help stretch kids' minds.
Teach children to think and invent. They'll gain important skills for life.
My kids love it if I join in. Yours will too. Sometimes they'll need help, but often they'll just want you to make something alongside them. Most of these craft projects are designed to be made together.
Encourage kids to add their own ideas and to devise their own original craft projects. You'll be amazed at what they come up with! Crafts develop kids' minds. If you don't feel creative, relax! You'll grow in creativity along with your children.
Our family gets a buzz out of making kids' crafts!
So open the craft box, jump in, and create something original!
