Yesterday afternoon I met up with one of my book clubs. After our meeting my sister, who is also in that book club, told me that she had a bag of craft things for me to take a look at. She said I could take what I wanted and donate the rest. She was setting low expectations. She gave me a treasure trove of kid craft goodness. I told her it was like I went to Hobby Lobby drunk and came home with all sorts of things.

Do you have any crafts you loved to do with preschoolers? I’m open to any ideas. The kids love crafts, and have come to expect a craft at least once a day. I’m running out of ideas.
This post brings back wonderful memories of doing crafts with my children when they were young.

Did you check out my blog for Weaving Workshop lesson 3? This craft is suitable for ages 7 and up. I also have a lot of curricula from my Fiber Arts program that I can share. I developed it for home school kids.

Pinterest is your friend:) All I remember about preschool crafts is back away from the glitter! We still have glitter living in the wild in our house and I haven’t had preschoolers in over 11 years:)

One of the totes has glitter in it. I think it will be an outdoor craft.

LOL! Seriously though, what a great bunch of craft supplies! I can’t think of anything for littles offhand, but will give it some thought. How neat that you do crafts together every day!

Believe it or not, there was a time when I had no car, no money and two babies at home. I baked bread every other day. My boys would walk away from Thomas the Tank Engine (their favorite show) and join me in the kitchen. They loved punching down and kneading the dough. Fortunately, the more you do this process, the better the bread, so it was win-win!! I was never crafty with them. With boys, we were outside ALL. THE. TIME! That suited my much better. Again, win-win.

Both of my kids like to bake with me. Elliot’s specialty is pretzels.

I have zero suggestions but now I totally want to do some drunk craft shopping. Or yarn shopping, whatever. That’s what Uber is for, right?

It is really a shame you don’t live closer, because I think that would be an amazing girls night.

What if you made little puppets by decorating the popsicle sticks? Or you could use old socks and use the google eyes, pompoms, etc to do sock puppets! Then it’s not just making the craft but they can be entertained by what they make after
