Diy Crafts & Projects For Your Instant Pot
I remember quite clearly the summer when I was growing up. Without telling you I’m old, let’s just say it was before the internet but after color television. I don’t know about you, but growing up with four brothers, my mom kicked us out of the house most summer days. Which I totally understand.
Easy Paper Plate Feelings Craft For Kids
Like I said, this was before the internet so there was no way to look up summer crafts like there is now. You had old standbys like macaron necklaces and melting beads, but coming up with craft ideas for five kids was probably quite a challenge. Especially when your little ones are ten years apart from oldest to youngest.
Now that we have technology and great ideas are at our fingertips. If you want to keep the kids busy in the summer, you have more options than just throwing them out the door (we were sent to the neighborhood pool). There are tons of summer crafts for kids to try!
If you need some great projects, I’ve compiled a list for you. You probably have the supplies to make a lot of these on hand, and the average time for most of them is about 30 minutes to an hour.
The great thing about these ideas is that they are for a variety of levels, so whether you have a toddler or a toddler, you’ll find something on this list.
Easy Halloween Paper Crafts
There will be a lot of crafts on this list that you already have supplies for. For example, the projects below use salt, paper towels, paper plates, egg cartons, baking soda and more. I’m sure you’ll find ways to make these ideas your own!
