9 FUN Spring Crafts for Kids!
Let’s start things off with some time outdoors…
Homemade Sidewalk Chalk!
It’s chalk. THAT YOU MAKE! Seriously folks THIS is where science meets play – what a great STEAM activity for kids!
DIY Sidewalk Chalk Paint
For a totally different chalk experience, try homemade chalk PAINT! This isn’t chalkboard paint – it won’t turn anything into a chalkboard. It’s also not the type of chalk paint people use on their cabinets/furniture. It’s a simple & easy recipe for what is essentially LIQUID sidewalk chalk! Bonus – it’s a slightly less-intense process than the Homemade Sidewalk Chalk above.
Wooden Easter Egg Painting Activity
It’s that time of year, Easter is a spring holiday! These hollow wooden eggs are sure to become a treasured favorite over the years. I’m considering making it a tradition for every kid to paint one wooden Easter egg per year, that way we can see how their art skills develop as we grow our non-plastic Easter egg collection.
