Crafting Saturday Showcase – 5 Great Ideas
I have had such fun reading blogs with crafts for kids and looking at Pinterest.
Here are some of the most fascinating I have found this month:
1. Puppets with heads from Paper Mache:
Molly Moo – A great blog with lots of ideas for crafts. I loved the paper mache puppet heads. You can find all the instructions at No Sew Easter Crafts.
2. Polystyrene Peanuts:
The next idea is so amazing. Never thought about it. But those little popcorn stuffings that come for packaging. Wow –
A beautiful painting. Or a train? Or a forest? Creativity abounds. Find it a Arteaschuola.
3. Origami Art for Children
I always loved paper folding. I remember a neighbour making a bunny for me with paper; and a 5 dollar bill into a ring (I still have that).
Here is a great explanation how to do simple folding and make excellent designs.

4. Homemade Bath Crayons and other great ideas.
Find out more at Little Crunchy Mama.
5. Homemade Modelling Clay
Here is a great idea with easy ingredients. Instructions can be found at Creative Playhouse.
