Children Craft Ideas
Looking for children craft ideas to delight the children you love? Children have nothing but fun making creative crafts. They love the challenge of producing a craft project for the first time, and the best part is showing you their finished project!
Hand puppets made from inexpensive garden gloves are wonderful for just about any age. You'll decide how much of the activity can be done by the child and how much help he or she will need. Materials for this craft idea consist simply of garden gloves, different-sized pompoms, yarn, felt, buttons or cutout construction paper, and craft glue.
Just add any other items you have in your craft drawer for special effects. Clothing can be made from the felt, and different sized pompoms can be used for a variety of things such as ears, noses, and the head of the puppet. Yarn is great for hair and buttons are perfect for eyes or to add to clothing. Try some wiggly eyes if they're on hand.
