Spring Crafts for 2 Year Olds

Spring! A time for flowers and butterflies and … brightly coloured toddler crafts?

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 out through his third year. Why not? I will keep him little just as long as I can.

So these spring crafts are in fact great for two year olds and toddlers of any age …

These are some of the cutest spring crafts for toddlers and great activities to let them begin to explore the world of art. So let’s get the spring crafting started!

Cherry Blossom Trees – This art activity is great sensory fun and turns out SO cute! These cherry blossom trees are sure to add some sunshine to your day.

Puffy Paint Clouds from No Time for Flash Cards – Spend an afternoon cloud-watching, then come in and make this puffy paint art.

Toddler-Made Spring Suncatchers from Fun at Home with Kids – The little ones will definitely have fun making beautiful spring flowers. I love that just a few materials are needed for this!

Flower Prints from Soda Bottles from Inner Child Fun – Reuse old bottles and tops for colorful spring art with your toddlers.

Ladybug Hat Craft from Make and Takes – The materials for this hat will let the kids stick (and re-stick, over and over) the ladybug’s dots. The hat would be fun to wear while on a ladybug hunt!
