Summer Crafting

A Summer crafting roundup is probably the best kind of roundup. Outside crafting is, of course, appropriate as is inside crafting. With our usual hot Texas summers, Mamas always need a good activity to keep the kids busy during those hot afternoon hours. Check out this sampling of ideas…

This Marshmallow Catapult from Family Fun is great for Summer crafting. Make it inside while it’s hot and take it outside to launch!

———————————

Love these Insect Dioramas from Art Lessons For Kids. Crafty, fun, and educational all in one!

———————————

I love the look and texture of these Corn Syrup Paintings from Eighteen 25!

———————————

I love the colors of this Magical Beans Mosaic from Martha Stewart. Would be a great craft to construct outside and possibly use as place mats for the evening’s dinner!

———————————

You’ll definitely want to put these Cookie Cutter Bird Feeders from Prudent Baby on your Summer crafting list. I remember making bird feeders as a child. I know my kids would love these!

———————————

Come Together Kids has a great outdoor activity for the kids, a Bubble Snake Maker! I can see this being a great educational activity, too, from making it together to actually blowing the bubbles.

———————————

We’ve done tie dyed t-shirts before but never with a sharpie. Love these Sharpie Tie Dye T-Shirts from Moments With Maisie.

———————————

When Summer boredom hits, these Can Phones from Skip To My Lou will surely keep the kids entertained.

———————————

These Lava Lamps from S.L. Smith Photography are sure to create some Summer fun and have the kids mesmerized at the same time.

———————————

These Fairy Windchimes from Beneath The Rowan Tree are adorable. Would definitely make a lovely addition to Summer BBQ’s.

———————————

Here’s to a Summer filled with lots of family time, no boredom, and fun crafting!
