It&#8217;s summertime &#8211; the kids are on vacation from school&#8230; and they&#8217;re bored!  What&#8217;s a fiber-aholic to do?
Why, get them crafting of course  
I&#8217;ve got a few different kid&#8217;s crafts in the Tangled Thread archives, so I&#8217;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&#8217;d recommend painting instead of embroidering these felt sweethearts if you&#8217;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 [...]<p>Post from: <a href="http://www.blisstree.com">Blisstree</a></p>
