We try to do arts and crafts at least once a day around here. These are projects that we dreamed up, often using something or other we found in the recycling bin. Most of them are pretty easy for very little kids, and easy for parents to toss together. This section also includes activities that don't need any materials (like how to make a story with your toddler). Creativity doesn't need any props besides us sometimes too. :)

Feel free to write in with any fun ideas you want to share! Newer crafts are on the top.
