3 Easy Summer Crafts for Kids

Funky Popsicles

Popsicles are a favorite treat over summer, but when you have to say ‘no’ to that second one, why not suggest making your own funky popsicles with your kids?

And with a little imagination and plenty of craft elements they can design their very own special popsicle to play with. Here we’ve just shown a few creative ideas, but your kids can decorate them with anything they like.

Paper Plate Watermelons

Paper plate watermelons are another fun craft to make and are great for kids that enjoy coloring. They can even be used for serving yummy food if you use non-toxic coloring markers when making this awesome craft.

We especially love how bright and colorful they are even lying around the house.

It’s the perfect summer craft idea and for an added activity you can segment the watermelon and teach your kids about fractions. Here we’ve segmented one-half into thirds.
