One of the greatest joys in life is being able to sit around the craft table with the kids on the school holidays and watch as they create their own pieces of art and craft goodies from scratch. Your children no doubt love being able to bring their vibrant ideas to life, however they may not be too thrilled about cleaning up afterwards. How does one get the kids just as excited about organising their craft supplies, as they are about using them? If you’ve asked yourself this question many times before, you’ll be pleased to know we’ve got the answer – by letting them make their own kids craft storage jars!
This activity will not only encourage your kids to create little characters for each of their storage jars, but it’ll also make cleaning up more exciting for them as they’ll love to see their creations being used.
