Arts & Crafts for children…need some fun ideas!?
I have an almost 6 year old daughter and she loves arts and crafts but I haven’t had much time to do them with her because I’m far along in pregnancy and it’s hard to get motivated at timse due to a lot of pain. This week I am devoting my afternoons to having some fun with her and trying some new arts & crafts.
So my question is, does anyone have any good, unique ideas? I don’t want to just whip out some paints. I tried looking at our library for ideas but we have a small library and not much choice.
Was there anything your child just loved doing and would like to share with me?! Thank you in advance for any ideas!
