kids craft weekly
October 6th, 2009
If you have kids and don’t know about kids craft weekly, well you should. I’ve subscribed to their newsletter for quite some time, but I’m embarrassed to say this is the first project we’ve ever done from it. When we do art my kids are pretty happy with the process and not too interested in the result, but recently that’s changed. These two projects are both from the 5 minute craft issue. And really with a 2.5 and 4 year old all crafts should be 5 minute crafts. The owls were a great for learning to cut more precisely (for the 4 year old) and to work on getting better with the scissors (for the 2.5 year old). The bean project was awesome (draw something with glue and have the kids put beans on the glue–easy peasy) and my daughter has requested we do it everyday since. They started off just doing letters, but wanted to pictures as well: pumpkins and beans (ha!) and smile faces (as they call them).
I think that is actually my owl. If you want to see the boy’s owl (grandma) it’s here.
