Kids Craft Ideas
Craft is a good source of bringing out the creativity in children. Read some of the kids' craft ideas in the following article and let your kids have a good time.
- Pencil/Toothpick
- 12 inch Pipe cleaners
- Cut the pipe cleaner into two. Divide the second part of the pipe cleaner into 6 parts.
- Use them in making a support for the stand.
- Twist them and attach them on either ends of the pipe.
- Cover the pipes with ribbons of different color combinations or any one color will look good too.
- color the empty eggs with different colors or create different patterns and designs to make them look more attractive.
- Display them on the holder.
- Wreath Form
- Tinsel Garland
- Shatterproof Balls (You can select the color combination of your choice)
- Ribbons
- Wire Snips
- Glue
- Cover the wreath with the tinsel garland. Tie it very tightly to avoid it from slipping. Use the glue to stick the ends of the garland or you can tie the knot too.
- Pick up a ribbon of any color or design of your choice and wrap it over the tinsel garland. As you are wrapping the ribbon, stick it with glue so that it doesn't fall off the wreath.
- Shatter balls have metal loops as they are used for hanging purposes. You can just gently pull out the loops or just snip it off. Stick the shatter balls to the wreath.
- Small toys
- A strong glue
- Disc magnets
- Collect all the small toys that children don't play with. Shells, dice, pebbles and blocks would make great options for making magnets.
- Spread sufficient amount of glue on the disc magnet or at the back of the item you have to stick on the magnet. Press the two pieces firmly on each other, so that they stick well.
- Keep the object aside, till it both the items get properly stuck on each other.
- Wire
- Small ornaments or toys
- Wire sips
- Thin threads
- Ribbon
- Take wire and make a ring out of it. Twist in the ends of wires into each other. Select the color of the ribbon and wrap it around the wire.
- Take the thread and tie the small toys to the wire.
- Take some more wire and make a loop out of it to hang it.
- Mirror
- Decorative pieces (pebbles, gems, childhood photographs)
- Strong glue
- As children will be using mirrors, make sure that the edges are softened and well cut.
- Collect the small decorative pieces that you have collected. In case, you want to paste your pictures, then pick out some of the interesting ones and begin making a frame out of the photographs.
- Allow the glue to dry and you'll have your mirror mosaic ready
- White card
- Beads, cutouts, ribbons or threads
- Craft glue
- Alphabet stencil
- Fold the white card in a way that looks like a book.
- Use the beads or cutouts to give a 3D look to the front page of your card.
- Use the stencil to mention the greetings like Happy Birthday on the card.
