Kids crafts for summertime

It’s summertime - the kids are on vacation from school… and they’re bored! What’s a fiber-aholic to do?
Why, get them crafting of course
I’ve got a few different kid’s crafts in the Tangled Thread archives, so I’ve pulled some of my favorites together for you.
- Hand-painted t-shirts.
- Create a bouquet of felt flowers.
- These sewn projects would be great for an older child or teenager.
- I’d recommend painting instead of embroidering these felt sweethearts if you’ve got younger kids.
There are more great kids crafts from other bloggers in the Lifestyles channel too!
- Paint your own soccer ball from Play Library.
- Make your own play clay from Hankering for Yarn (I’ve used this recipe for years and it’s great!)
- Be creative & Earth-friendly with a recycled doll house from Tree Hugging Family.
- Use egg cartons to make caterpillars with Inside Motherhood.
Happy crafting!
