I am the opposite of crafty, so I need help. What basic art supplies do you keep on hand for your kids? I have crayons, water colors, and some construction paper, but beyond that I'm lost.
Also, any crafts that you have done with your kids recently that they've really enjoyed? I'm trying to stockpile ideas as we are moving past playground weather.

Re: Craft talk
I'm a crafty person and we never do crafts. ::hangs head in shame::
We have crayons and coloring books, but he just isn't interested.
We love to color and playdough is a hit too. Just throw in some cookie cutters and your golden
Crash thanks for mentioning the googley eyes and pom poms....dollar tree here I come.
@ladybugpjb don't be too hard on yourself! We don't have time (and I don't have the patience) for crazy crafts right now with DD2 not napping and needing so much attention. I'm just looking ahead for when she is on more of a schedule and I can actually count on her napping for a set period of time.
Kimbus22 LOL we keep all crayons/coloring supplies well out of reach...I learned my lesson when she colored red alllllll over my white walls.
Duffgurl I didn't think of cookie cutters w/ play doh!! Good one!
@kimbus22 - how can you crush his creativity like that? That's pretty ingenious, if you ask me
Kidding aside, our crayons are up on a shelf, too, for fear of crayon on the walls.
