This is the month when my kids start getting bored.
The excitement of Summer is starting to fade and before we know school will be here.
So I put together some fun kid activities and kid crafts to keep this month colorful and fun around here!
Make Star Crayons… I love the sparkle!

Dye a bunch of rice and let the kids play with it, create art, instruments…
and have endless hours of fun!

This printable sewing card is ADORABLE.

This is what my kids call COOL: A Marshmallow Shooter!
We used to make this when I was young and throw uncooked garbanzo beans.
What were we thinking?

Kids love experiments!
Have them make Milk Art using food colorant, milk and soap.

Here is an activity that won’t break the bank.
Gather a bunch of Sticks from the backyard and have the kiddos create art with them.
I think they would look adorable inside of a jar for the kid’s room.

Come on… we have to do this one!
I am loving the idea of running around the yard throwing Cheetos in the air
and having cream shower caps to catch them!

I remember spending hours playing with boxes while I was little.
What about making a kitchen with the children?
Or a gas station?

Thank you very much!!! I love it all!!
I’ve actually done those lacing cards with a bunch of little peeps at my son’s 4th b’day party last year. It was fun, but any younger and it’s hard. Thanks for the links.
