Free Children's Crafts

Children's crafts are fun and usually quick to do so that children do not lose their concentration. The kid's crafts that I have here for you take about 1 to 2 hours to do, depending on the skill level of your child and they are made from scraps found around your home or at the bottom of your craft cupboard. Some crafts require time to dry. All of these crafts were done by the children, ages 4 to 13, where I work in less than one hour with some help from parents and staff.

Cookie Dough Ornament Craft - Made from a simple mix of cornstarch, salt and water, these ornaments can be created for Christmas, Easter, Valentine's Day or even as a nice gift for Grandparent's Day. Please note that the Cookie Dough Ornaments need to be prepared ahead of time by an adult before the children can decorate them.
