Crafty

A lot of times when kids come over to play I do an art project with them. I am by no means crafty – at all. But I will do almost anything, including arts and crafts, to keep bored kids at bay. This barely qualifies as a project. I went to Michael’s and bought 3 wood boxes for about $3 each. I also bought a bag of mosaic tiles for about $4 and some super glue. The paint (washable) I already had. And I just let them go for it. Once they had the tiles in place I glued them, and then they painted to their hearts content.  It really feels weird to post this as a craft, but I hear all the time that people think I am crafty and they aren’t. I guess this post is to dispel the myth, and to show how easy it can be.

    kids are stoked to do anything with paint/glue/texture. it doesn’t have to be complicated, right?! =) i need to remember this more, especially with summer approaching.

    I totally encourage crafting with kids. Even though I have ZERO talent for it.
