Hi,once again my sweet granddaughter wants to do a craft booth at a couple of craft fairs. Last year we got a late start, but this year she would like to work on things through the summer. This will give her and I more time to do some bigger and better crafts. We would love to have any ideas and maybe you could direct us to some really neat craft sites with great ideas. Ideas for toddler up to pre teen would be great.

Thanks to all who reply!

Hi NebGranny,
Get yourself a cup of tea or coffee, get comfortable, and be prepared to spend HOURS at these wonderful sites that have crafts for kids. The final one is my favorite.

Thank you so much Dixie. We visited one site today and could take hours to look at all the different crafts. I would like to find her some things that would sell. Last year was her first year at having kid crafts. She did not do bad..but would like to find some things kids would really like !! We made some glitter pens today ..but would you believe we could not find the double stick tape anywhere . Walmart..Joannes , nor Michaels!! So we got some tape I thought would work and it did not work the best!!

She is much more excited this year and has matured sooo much this year!! I am excited to get started and so is she!!

Thanks NebGranny

sometimes I call my crafting playing, I have seen some big girl things made with the shrink plastic that is so nice, I helped my 5 year old gs make a volcano and couldnt wait to see it blow! I dont know who was more excited, does that count? I say what ever works for you. Happy Crafting Oddie ps would love to see some photos of your stained glass.

I am trying to remember here and can't so hope someone can remember the reindeer made out of something???? The antlers were the kids handprints then had googly eyes and red pom pom for a nose. I am thinking it was construction paper. OH! My GB's loved the idea of Magic Reindeer food! Google it and you can find the recipe, its oatmeal and a little white sugar and a little colored sugar. Mix and bag up in little snack size zip lock bags. All you do is have the kids sprinkle the Magic Reindeer food outside the night you want Santa to come and the reindeer find the food and stop at their house!
