The crafts that are posted here are almost all done with my young children as the primary participants. I enjoy doing crafts with my children because it allows them to be creative and gain some fantastic fine motor skills. They often have to overcome challenges when learning a new skill and it also teaches me patience when I'm helping them learn their new skills. Their completed work also makes wonderful gifts for family!
A majority of my crafts are inspired by other bloggers and you will find links back to their original work. It can be difficult to find crafts for children as young as mine so I love to share other people's ideas that I find as well as some of my own!
