Craft Ideas

I am in need of some craft ideas (simple inexpensive ones). Lillie has been asking to do crafts for the past several days and I am running out of ideas. The one problem I do encounter is finding ones that can simplify down for Gracie to do. Please send me ideas or sites you go to find craft ideas. Thanks!!! :)

  1. I skimmed through Holly's art book last night and it looks like there are some good ones in there, I will take a better look tonight and see what I can find for you. :-)

  2. We just did one the other day. It was thumbprint drawings. You can find ideas if you search on Flickr. The book is called Ed Emberley's Great Thumbprint Drawing Book. Anyway you just need an ink pad and some paper and some coloring utensils. :) It was fun for me too! :)
    I'll try to come up with some more.

  3. I remember that we would use egg cartons when we were kids and make alot of different animals. Here's a website.

  5. I bought some sponges in the shape of animals for painting with and some modeling clay all from wal-mart today. Aidan also loves Moon Sand but you need to play with it in an area where it can be swept up easily.
