DIY Crafts for Kids
As my boys get older, I find myself trying to think of things to keep them occupied and their minds going. Chan still has a year until kindergarten, but will be 5 this fall, so I feel like he’s needing more as far as creativity goes. He loves to paint and play with play-doh. He also loves to color and cut paper and glue. And of course, Rowan loves to do anything that big brother does so he’s coloring and glueing right along with him.


Since school is getting out, I’m sure there are many of you looking for great craft ideas to keep your kids occupied and their minds going. FedEx has a great blog called Out of Office that offers great ideas when it comes to crafts for kids.

Bookmarks 
Fedex and MomCentral sent us a craft kit to make bookmarks for the boy’s books. It was a fun and simple activity for the boys, and I made my own bookmark along with them.

They started out by coloring their bookmarks, and adding stickers.

Then I cut them out for them, punched a hole in the top, and attached ribbon. They turned out really cute as you can see below, and the boys were so proud of their coloring/sticker job.

There are lots of other great craft ideas on FedEx’s Out of Office blog. One of my personal favorites was the kite. I think it’s a great idea, and we are planning on trying this one out. Head over the Out of Office blog and check out some of their ideas. Any in particular that you like? What DIY projects have you done with your kids?

I wrote this review while participating in a blog tour campaign by Mom Central on behalf of FedEx Office and received the items necessary to facilitate my review. In addition, Mom Central sent me a gift card to thank me for taking the time to participate.
