We’re all kids at heart! We’ve got some great projects, games and activities to keep the kids entertained until school is back in session.

Take advantage of the inclement weather—turn old soup cans and plastic buckets into a snowball version of your favorite arcade activities—skee ball!

When traveling to your local craft store is out of the question, create egg carton masks, animal earmuffs or blanket stitch felt dolls using upcycled goods and fabric scraps you probably already have in your craft room! We’ve even got DIYs for Shrinky Dinks to create personal jewelry and other accessories.

Just follow our easy instructions for these activities, and your children will stay entertained while you keep your sanity!
