It is officially February, so I thought it was time to think about Valentine’s Day crafts for preschoolers! Break out the pink and red crafting supplies, my friend! Are you getting into the holiday spirit yet?! I know what you’re thinking, “Holiday spirit?! Good grief! We are talking about Valentine’s Day, right?” Yes. You see,…
Salt Dough Ornaments with Cloves for Christmas
It is really starting to feel like the holiday season around here! We have officially started Christmas School (and the kids are LOVING it), the Christmas decorations are out, and we completed our first Christmas tradition of the year: making salt dough ornaments together! I can’t even tell you the number of times we have…
Christmas Art Project for Kids: Watercolor Pine Needles
I am so excited to share this easy—and beautiful—Christmas art project with you! It is a wonderful art project for even the littlest of artists. In fact, it’s from one of my newest resources called Little Woodland Artists! Sometimes, young artists like to have a few known skills up their sleeves to boost confidence before…
Fall Craft for Preschoolers: Leaf-y Jack-o’-Lantern
Each year, we head out for a trip to a special conservation area over the Thanksgiving weekend (perhaps it seems early to be talking about Thanksgiving, but for us here in Canada, Thanksgiving is only a week away!). One year, I brought this little fall craft for preschoolers along. It worked out beautifully for the…
Spring Crafts for Toddler 2 Year Olds
Spring! A time for flowers, butterflies, and… brightly colored spring crafts for toddlers? I should mention, for those of you who visit regularly and may be scratching your head—I don’t, in fact, have a two year old. But I am really holding onto that ‘toddler’ title of this baby of mine. Stretching it right on…
Easter Egg Confetti Craft for Kids!
Happy (almost, kind of, sort of) Easter! With so many Easter crafts on the blog already, I was almost going to let this season go without adding another Easter egg craft for kids to this space. I mean… how many Easter egg crafts do we really need?! Turns out at least one more. This one…
A Sticky Valentine Craft for Toddlers
Can you believe Valentine’s Day is only a few days away? We only just took down our Christmas lights! As I’m writing that, I realize we may have waited a little too long to check that task off the list… Anywho… If you want to sneak in one more craft before Valentine’s Day, this Valentine…
Quick-Dry Rainbow Salt Tray
We all have different strengths and different needs, right? One of my strengths, I do believe, is my willingness to let my little ones get messy. It really doesn’t bother me one bit watching them slosh paint on the table, drip paintbrushes on the ground, or see those painted little hands touch freshly washed hair….
4 Days of Giveaways: Playful Days!
Welcome to our final day of my4 Days of Giveaways! I has been a fun week and you have had the opportunity to enter a giveaway for an Oak Meadow’s Craft Kit, a Wikki Stix prize pack, and a gorgeous Art Bundle from The Purple Plum Studio. So what more could I possibly have in…
A Fall Leaf Potato Stamp
Oh, the good old potato stamp—it’s been a while, but we are back at it! I can’t for the life of me remember why we haven’t done this craft in so long. It was so fun, perfect for all 4 of my kids (um… and Mama, too), and they turned out so pretty. Just before…
