I would also like to mention that this craft is great for children of all ages. At home, I did this craft with a 4 year old and an 8 year old and both were delighted with both the process and the end product. It is very easy to do and can make a beautiful little gift or grab bag for the Easter season.]]> http://www.artistshelpingchildren.org/kidscraftsactivitiesblog/2010/02/easter-bunny-rabbit-treat-cups-crafts-activity-ideas-for-kids/feed/ 5 http://www.artistshelpingchildren.org/kidscraftsactivitiesblog/2009/10/how-to-make-halloween-napkin-rings-for-spooky-table-decorations-crafts-for-kids/ http://www.artistshelpingchildren.org/kidscraftsactivitiesblog/2009/10/how-to-make-halloween-napkin-rings-for-spooky-table-decorations-crafts-for-kids/#comments Thu, 22 Oct 2009 12:47:19 +0000 Sharon David http://www.artistshelpingchildren.org/kidscraftsactivitiesblog/?p=791 Are you looking forward to a special dinner at Halloween?

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 http://www.artistshelpingchildren.org/kidscraftsactivitiesblog/2009/07/asy-pinwheel-pencil-craft-for-kids-for-independence-day-on-july-4th/ http://www.artistshelpingchildren.org/kidscraftsactivitiesblog/2009/07/asy-pinwheel-pencil-craft-for-kids-for-independence-day-on-july-4th/#comments Sat, 04 Jul 2009 01:24:43 +0000 sirena http://www.artistshelpingchildren.org/kidscraftsactivitiesblog/?p=410 Today, I love making pinwheels with my kids because they get as much enjoyment out of it as I did.

It brings in both the creative and a sensory stimulation that is not always there in a painting craft. In addition, the finished pieces have a 3D-effect to them and it looks amazing under the glass of a frame. My personal favorite is to use blue, white and silver, since the children often create pictures that resemble beautiful ocean scenes.]]> http://www.artistshelpingchildren.org/kidscraftsactivitiesblog/2009/07/painting-with-sand-a-fun-kids-crafts-activity/feed/ 0 http://www.artistshelpingchildren.org/kidscraftsactivitiesblog/2009/04/sculpting-with-fimo-the-goldfish-crafts-project-for-kids/ http://www.artistshelpingchildren.org/kidscraftsactivitiesblog/2009/04/sculpting-with-fimo-the-goldfish-crafts-project-for-kids/#comments Tue, 28 Apr 2009 02:00:30 +0000 sirena http://www.artistshelpingchildren.org/kidscraftsactivitiesblog/?p=163 In this craft, I will teach you how to create a very basic fimo sculpture fish that most children will enjoy making again and again.]]> http://www.artistshelpingchildren.org/kidscraftsactivitiesblog/2009/04/sculpting-with-fimo-the-goldfish-crafts-project-for-kids/feed/ 0
