Save Money this Summer with Homemade Crafts

It’s that time of year again: the temperatures are high, and the kids are home on summer vacation. Summer vacation is a time to make memories and spend quality time together as a family. However, it can also be challenging and expensive to keep kids busy. We’ve put together some simple craft projects you can make at home. Save yourself from hearing “I’m bored” without spending an arm and a leg!

Here are some ideas to consider:

Duct Tape Play Tent – from The Craft Patch

Glitter Ocean Slime Jars – from A Pumpkin & A Princess

Pressed Flower Lanterns – from One Little Project

Crepe Paper Flowers – from Abbi Kirsten Collections

Rainbow Stacking Game – from A Kailo Chic Life

Watermelon Blanket – from The House That Lars Built

Ice Cream Magnets – from A Kailo Chic Life

Seashell Necklaces – from Moms & Crafters

Flamingo Ring Toss Game – from Sugar & Cloth

 

Have your child pick their favorite, head to your local craft store, and let their imagination run wild this summer!
