It may be cold outside but that doesn’t mean it can’t be tons of fun inside. Join me and GummyLump as we work on 300 Crafts for Kids in 2011. Throughout 2011 GummyLump will post fun, creative, preschool suitable crafts that any family can do at home. With the collection of standard supplies, some specialty items such as foam stickers and pipe cleaners you and your child will be able to whip up adorable creations to keep or give as special gifts to family and friends.
The other day Shae and I chose to do a Favorite Things banner. This was a variation on Project #10 “Things I Like” craft. I taped 2 large scrapbook pieces of paper, titled it Shae’s favorite things and we drew and pasted pictures of things like her brother and sister, a pink flower and Scooby Doo movies and games. I could’ve made this project as big as her bedroom wall but we contained it to something smaller that she can show off to everyone that comes over.
Crafting and imagination play is key for kids development. Growing up we I remember being occupied with books, crayons, dolls and blocks; I make sure my kids get to enjoy the simple facets of play so they aren’t consumed with technology and electronics.
Get your kids imaginations and fingers working with some of the crafts listed on GummyLump. If you accomplish any of the crafts listed and upload a picture of your finished project on GummyLump’s Facebook Page you’ll automatically be entered to win their weekly giveaway of Kids Art Supplies.
