You can use this as a phone call message organizational center for the rest of the family as well. The box opens up for paper, pens, and pencils. You have the choice to but a clock face on the top of the box or to put a chalkboard on the top of the box.]]> http://www.artistshelpingchildren.org/kidscraftsactivitiesblog/2010/04/how-to-make-a-message-board-box-organizational-craft-idea-for-kids/feed/ 2 http://www.artistshelpingchildren.org/kidscraftsactivitiesblog/2010/04/make-a-family-newspaper-to-talk-about-family-news/ http://www.artistshelpingchildren.org/kidscraftsactivitiesblog/2010/04/make-a-family-newspaper-to-talk-about-family-news/#comments Tue, 06 Apr 2010 02:21:36 +0000 admin http://www.artistshelpingchildren.org/kidscraftsactivitiesblog/?p=2576 Every family has news—lots of news—so why not make a family newspaper! This would be a great gift to make for Mom on Mother's Day or Dad on Father's Day or for birthdays. For gifts, you can put clever titles like 'The Best Mom in the World Has Been Found' ... or The Sweetest Mother in the World Has Been Found to Be Timmy's Mom (if your name is Timmy). This is a great crafts idea that will produce a keepsake to cherish in years to come.]]> http://www.artistshelpingchildren.org/kidscraftsactivitiesblog/2010/04/make-a-family-newspaper-to-talk-about-family-news/feed/ 0 http://www.artistshelpingchildren.org/kidscraftsactivitiesblog/2009/07/flowers-for-mom-easy-to-make-paper-flowers-with-only-4-materials/ http://www.artistshelpingchildren.org/kidscraftsactivitiesblog/2009/07/flowers-for-mom-easy-to-make-paper-flowers-with-only-4-materials/#comments Sat, 18 Jul 2009 01:26:12 +0000 sirena http://www.artistshelpingchildren.org/kidscraftsactivitiesblog/?p=383 It is simply to make some pretty flowers with paper. Kids love this and what is even better is that they are so easy to make, a child of almost any age can make. You can also do a multitude of things such as mounting them on a Popsicle stick or use them to decorate pictures or cards. What is even better is the fact that these little flowers can be made with only a few items that can be found around the house.]]> http://www.artistshelpingchildren.org/kidscraftsactivitiesblog/2009/07/flowers-for-mom-easy-to-make-paper-flowers-with-only-4-materials/feed/ 1
