What are good crafts for preschooler kids?

admin — Thu, 27 May 2010 00:18:59 +0000

I babysit two kids, ages 3 and 5. They like crafts but I’m running out of ideas!! I have made tambourines and music shakers, printed off colouring pages, traced & coloured leaves with crayons, let them illustrate small stories, ironed leaves in wax paper (I did the ironing; don’t worry), finger painted and cut out potato stamps to use with paint. What are good crafts to do with them? Halloween crafts would be great but any craft will do. Thanks!

Bats. Paint toilet paper rolls black and glue wings on them and make a scary face. You can hang them with string.

Spiders. Paper machet small balloons. Use laundry starch and strips of news paper. After they dry you can paint them black and stick pipe cleaners in them for legs.

Ghost. Dip cheese cloth into laundry starch and gently ring out the extra. Drape it over a 2 liter soda bottle and let dry. Paint or glue felt for a face. Hang with string.

Easy Crafts for Christmas Gifts?

admin — Tue, 23 Feb 2010 08:30:59 +0000

What are some Easy Christmas crafts that don’t look cheap and use items I would have around the house?
please answer!

Well here are some ideas :

Homemade snow globe
1. Take a jar (with a lid) and put sparkles in it. If you want to, glue and action figure with a GLUE GUN to the LID. Then once it is dry. fill the jar with water. You could add food coloring if you would like. Then put the lid back on the jar. Yes i know it will be upside down but you would then FLIP the jar over. Now you have a pretty decorative snow globe

2. Necklaces, bracelets

Well you will need good looking beads for it to look more formal and mature. But if you have smaller children 7 and lower, any beads with do. You could also make string bracelets and necklaces. They are very cute, all you have to do is braid them. Heres what they look like

3. You could make pillows or blankets They are pretty easy and most people have some extra fabric lying around. I assume you know how to sew but if you don’t, Google it

4. You could make a book filled with memories of you and that person together. That’s a really cute idea and you could decorate it with lace and ribbon too

Happy Holidays and God Bless!
