So I am in desperate need of some suggestions of arts and crafts projects others may do with their children. I am trying to find things that a 2 year old and 9 month old can both do. I have looked at pinterest and have made play dough and edible finger paint. I just don't do the finger paint that often because well I have been too lazy to make it, I won't lie. I have also not done too ,many projects because I have been to lazy lately to want to clean up after they are done. The past month here we have probably had 5 sunny days and while I need those projects to keep them entertained, it also makes it hard to find motivation to do those things! :-) The struggle is real!
What are some other crafts that you do with your kids? Any this with like popsicle sticks or pipe cleaners, or paper plates ( I used to love coloring paper plates as a kid). I am also looking for things that wont be a headache for me. My son is Mr. Independent, so something that will cause less fighting because he is making a giant mess would also be awesome. I just don't know of many things that I could do with the both of them. Any suggestions would be great! Thank you!
Yeah, those ages are really hard for crafting. One thing I will say about finger painting though that I like to do, is just strip them down to their diapers and let them finger paint in the bathtub. Cleanup is super easy!
ReplyDeleteI feel like that is my routine at dinner,especially spaghetti night! They eat in diapers and straight to the tub after lol!
DeleteSand Art with Glue Sticks. Decorate a Hat with Cloth Stickers, Make a Mobile with Paper Plates Strings, and Crayons.. That's all I have of the top of my head. Try Googling too.
ReplyDeleteThe mobile is a great idea! Sand would probably still be bad and every where! lol
