It’s summer and the kids are excited, no school… you’re a bit overwhelmed thinking how am I ever going to keep them busy and out of trouble? A great activity for summertime is crafts. Crafting is a great way to stimulate your children’s imagination while spending some great family time.
There are many great summertime family craft projects you can do with your children to preserve summer memories.
Three ideas for preserving your summer memories include:
2. Journal Activities: Have your children journal about their summer days. If they are too young to journal themselves, you can have them tell you about their day and you can write it for them. They can also add photos or drawings to illustrate their day.
3. Make a Family summer Vacation Scrapbook: Give each child a page in the scrapbook with their designs that depict their summer vacation.
