I been looking for some easy crafts to do with the kids whilst we’re at home more than we’ve ever been before. These few I’m posting below are perfect for any age, especially with younger children with less attention spans. None of these activities take long to set up and are super easy for all to do.
Paper Mosaic Rainbow Pictures
Brighten up your window or even someone else with these super easy rainbow pictures.
You will need:
- Coloured paper torn into small pieces (all different colours)
- Card or paper,
- Glue stick
Simply draw a rainbow onto your card or paper. Have your different coloured paper ready and in piles. Using the glue stick, stick the torn pieces onto your rainbow for a mosaic look.
Simple Flower Sticks
Perfect for this time of year, who doesn’t like lovely flowers in their home!
You will need:
- Plain paper,
- Cupcake cases,
- Wooden sticks,
- Gems or sequins or glitter (whatever you have to hand),
- Glue stick,
- Scissors.
On the plain paper, draw a flower and cut it out. Stick the wooden stick to one side and the cupcake cases in the centre of the other side. Finally decorate with sparkly gems or glitter.
We’ve popped ours in the window, we might make a whole bouquet!
Peg Paint Easter Pictures
Get ready for Easter with these eggstra easy pictures, great for decorating your living room or posting to your friends.
You will need:
- Some pegs,
- Cotton wool,
- Paints,
- Paper.
Firstly I drew an egg share of the plain paper. I got the kids to pop a piece of cotton wool on a peg, one each for each colour. That’s it, start decorating!
