12 gorgeous kids craft ideas for the school holidays
So here I am on day two of the school holidays. We've already seen Finding Dory, we've made plans to visit various galleries and museums, and we've lined up a series of play dates. Still, the inevitable lament of 'what can I plaaaaaaay?' looms large in our household. And here in Sydney, it looks like we're in for a bit of rain.
In search of inspiration and a back-up plan, I headed straight to my favourite kids' craft blogs and came up trumps with some fresh and fun new activities.
Here, I've picked 12 of my favourite new kids craft ideas. These are the kind of projects I love sharing with my son, as they inspire all manner of creative play. Are you ready to unleash your own inner child? Let's get started...
