Looking for ideas to keep my little man busy while I'm off for the summer and he's home with me. He'll only go to daycare 1-2 times a week so he can kind of stay in a routine, so I need fun crafts we can do inside when it's hot. I don't want to wade through pinterest and thousands of pins, so post your favorite kid-friendly craft idea here!
Thanks for the link! DS is in a good routine. They do crafts everyday at daycare and he really enjoys it. The teacher sends the stuff home if I pick him up early and he always asks to do it right when we get home! Just need some ideas for indoor fun- he does love play dough and coloring though.
We paint things like birdhouses or picture frames that I get cheap at Michael's. Bonus that it creates a gift for grandparents :-) We did a big painting where he put paint on a huge sheet of paper first and then I let him drive all of his matchbox cars through it. He loved that! Afterwards we played car wash with soap in the kitchen sink, which he loved just as much.
We also play with cars a lot (pretend to drive through Carburetor Canyon from the movie/story "Cars"), build towers and bridges and tunnels with his foam blocks, read tons of books, listen and sing to his favorite songs, bake cookies or banana bread together.
