March crafts

Carefree Crafts came in a padded envelope via USPS. I got the package in the mail quite a while ago.  It was addressed to S, so it made his day to get a package in the mail and not just an envelope.

When S and I opened the package he was so excited to see what crafts were included.  Here are the crafts included for this month. There were 6 Rainbow/St. Patrick’s Day related crafts enclosed in the Lucky Rainbow kit.  It also gave a brief description of each craft and some fun Love/Valentine’s Day facts.

Rainbow Pencil Box-I like the idea of this box, but know it is going to be a gluey mess when we assemble it.

Update: S did like making this box.  I let him pick the order of the sticks.  There was really no rhyme or reason in his color order.  S liked helping squeeze all of the glue on the box, but the minute he got glue on his hands, he refused to touch them.  After that S would handle me the sticks and I had to stick them on the box.  S did like picking the stickers out to spell his name.

Colorful KaleidoscopeI didn’t really know if S knew what a kaleidoscope was.  When I showed him the picture he was sure to tell me that was a kaleidoscope (he didn’t say it quite right, but I got the gist).

Update: This was the first thing S picked to make and we did it right away.  I had to help him with all the tape necessary to assemble the different parts, but S loved adding the beads and stickers.  It doesn’t twist like most kaleidoscope, and you had to manually turn it to see the beads move.  S was okay with it once I showed him.

Leprechaun Button-I thought this was a cute St. Patrick’s Day craft.  I am not sure that we need to make it a button. We’ll see what S decides.

Update: S was really excited about making a leprechaun.  It had a gold ribbon with it to tie under the face; instead we made a hanging ornament.  We hung this from the door knob and S just loves it.

Rainbow Scratch Art-I am not even sure that S can do this.  I think the stencils may be a little beyond him, but I will let him try.  If he can’t do it I am just going to let him scratch any design he wants into the second one.

Rainbow Mobile-I thought S would totally be into this because he has been all about painting rainbows.  I could not convince S to make this craft right away.  It is a good thing, too because I had to read the directions like three times before I finally understood how to make the craft.

Colorful Wooden Tops-These look like fun.  S will have a lot of fun playing with the tops.  I can only imagine what he is going to do when he realizes we get to decorate the tops with markers.  I didn’t tell him about the markers yet.
