4 Fun Creative Things to Do with the Kids

Video Tutorials for 4 Fun Creative Things to Do with the Kids

Being a Crafter by profession, I involve my kids as much as I can. I put together this round up video of 4 Fun Creative Things to Do with the Kids. In it, you will learn how to:

  • Make Foam Airplane Clothespins
  • Dip Strawberries for Carrot Patch Pudding Cups
  • Create You Own Hand Puppets
  • Make Tie Dye Shirts

Here are some quick details before we get to the video.

Airplane Clothespins

Original Post: AIRPLANE CLOTHESPIN CRAFT VIDEO

Airplane Clothespin Craft

Time: 15 Minutes

My daughter and I made these years ago before she started elementary school. All you need is foam sticks, glue, and clothespins. Over the years, teachers have emailed me sharing that they made these in class with their kids as project to clip homework together! Add a magnet on the back and clip them to your refrigerator to hang your child’s artwork.

Carrot Patch Pudding Cups

Carrot Patch Pudding Cups Dessert

Time 30 Minutes

A fun idea for Spring, this activity is great for when you want to be creative but your hungry at the same time.  It’s also the perfect to serve the kid’s for dessert for Easter or a springtime party. Play around with different colored candy melts and cookies.

Hand Puppets

Original Post: HAND PUPPET PAPER CRAFT

Time: 15 Minutes

Another project that came about when my daughter wasn’t in school yet, we made these one day for fun when messing around in the craft room. All you need is pipe cleaners and wiggly eyes. If you don’t have a circle punch, simply trace a circular shaped object and cut out the circles.

Tie Dye Shirts

Original Post: HOW TO TIE DYE SHIRTS

How to Tie Dye a Shirt

Time: 1 hour

This is a fun anytime craft. You can do it with shirts, bags, socks, etc. The original post has lots of ideas for different tie dye patterns as well. This activity is great for VBS or girl or boy scouts but be careful! It’s messy; so, doing this outdoors is ideal.
