CELEBRATE FAMILY WEEK: Let's Get Crafty

It's Wednesday and what better way to spend some quality family time than getting crafty together...for some inspiration check out The Crafty Crow Children's Craft Co-op...great ideas!



To get your creative juices flowing try one of these great ideas:
Pirate Newspaper Hats
Sew Cute Little Monsters

Or one of my personal favorites...paper plate masks...simple cut out holes for the eyes and let kids decorate with pipe cleaners, buttons, construction paper, magazine pictures etc.

With older kids, a great family idea, is to have everyone make a self portrait using images from magazines and words that describe you. Glue the images and words to a piece of construction paper  and then have each family member share theirs...you may be surprised what you learn about each other and this is a great opportunity to talk about how we are uniquely and wonderfully made in God's image.
