As parents, we all want to encourage our kids to get creative and have fun. It’s a great way to help them build confidence, problem solve, and learn. That’s why this month, we’re celebrating crafts! Here at Lottie Dolls, we’re all about inspiring creativity and we’ve got some great ideas to help you and your kids get creative this May.

So, may the crafts be with you! Here are some fun craft ideas for kids this month:

1. Make a Dream Catcher: Dream catchers are a fun and easy craft for kids to make and customize. All you’ll need is a hoop, some string, feathers, beads, and some imagination. Let your kids express their creativity by making a colorful dream catcher.

2. Create Your Own Garland: This is a great way to get your kids involved in decorating your home. Give them some colorful paper, scissors, and glue and let them create their own mini garland. Hang it up for a pop of color and a reminder of their creativity.

3. Paint a Picture: Encourage your kids to express themselves through painting. Get out the paints, brushes, and paper and let them create a masterpiece. Not only is it fun, it’s a great way to help them develop their fine motor skills.

4. Make a Puppet: Puppets are a fun way to get your kids’ creative juices flowing. All you’ll need is some felt, fabric, buttons, glue, and scissors. Let your kids design their own puppets and then put on a puppet show!

5. Design a Plant Pot: Get your kids to design their own plant pots with paint and markers. Let them draw their favorite animal or create a colorful pattern, then fill the pot with soil and plant a seed. Watching their plant grow will be a great way for them to appreciate nature and their own creativity.

These crafts are fun for parents and kids alike, and are a great way to get creative and bond. So this May, get your kids crafting and may the crafts be with you!
