Summer will be here soon, and your children will love to be out of school and playing outside. Well, at least for a few days anyway. Once the newness of summer has disappeared and the reality of boredom sinks in, the campers one can become happy again, 'Mom I'm bored' monsters. What should parents do to help alleviate the pain of 'nothing to do? Planning of summer craft projects in advance is a smart idea that parents can use. Who knows, maybe the kiddos even learn a thing or two at the same time.
Since the climate is perfect for going out and exploring nature, kids can find objects like seeds, leaves, grass, flowers and other items to use in the manufacture of a collage of nature. All you have to do is glue the found craft bits onto a piece of stiff cardboard. You can add any another element who want to make colorful and interesting collage. Spraying the collage with paint can add color and variety too. How about a little glue on spraying and spraying the brightness in the collage? Another idea for using the elements of nature that is collected dried flowers arranged in a special scheme for mom.
Naturally, If children pick wildflowers are going to need a wonderful homemade vase to arrange them in Making a simple vase is a great summer craft idea. Children can make a nice simple vase of a tin can recycling. The cans of soup and coffee cans work well for small homemade vessels. The best tin cans have smooth exterior and are not too large. Be sure to cut all the points or sharp edges that may still be in the can opening. Children can cut a piece of colored construction paper to fit around the outside of the can and then paste it into the can after you have decorated any way you wish. Stickers, markers, crayons, paint, glue and glitter … the list goes on. A great idea for decorating the vase is by drawing a wonderful summer scene on the construction paper. You can also add your name, glue dried pasta, beans or seeds in the paper. Let everything dry thoroughly before gluing to the can. But they may want to decorate your glass is theirs. All that remains is to add a little water and dried flowers or wild flowers.
Kids can make containers and vases from empty jars too. Canning jars make great vases, but any old recycled container that works well. Be sure to clean very well. Let the kiddos get their hands wet by cleaning the jars themselves. After the bottle is dry, add pretty ribbon around the mouth. Kids love to paint on glass jar and maybe add shine, accounts and buttons too.
Tin and glass jar vases have multiple uses other than containers for flowers. Children can put in pencils, pens, markers or any small object you want to add.
