About this app

Some very easy kid crafts you can do with children is to make cute items out of popsicle sticks. By going to a craft, you can purchase boxes of what they call "craft sticks" that will run you around two dollars for a thousand sticks. For a little more you can also buy colored sticks that won't need to be painted. You will need to have a supply of white glue or craft glue to complete your as well as whatever embellishments you want to use.

If you're looking for easy kid crafts, you might want to start by making craft stick Christmas picture frames. Old Christmas cards make great pictures and can be framed as Christmas gifts. Start by gluing one stick across the top and one across the bottom of the picture. Your next layer will go on across on top of these two sticks forming a square. You can try stacking the sticks two high, or you can stagger them to produce a layered look. By adding a little glitter, glitter glue, or some stickers, your child will have made a lovely little framed picture.

Craft sticks can be easily cut with shears which makes them even more versatile. Using the wide craft sticks, you can help children make a gorgeous picket fence "welcome" sign for Mom on Mother's Day. You will need to cut the sticks for them beforehand. Each child will need 7 sticks: 3 regular sticks, 1 that has been cut to a point, 2 cut to go downhill to the left and 2 more to the right. Paint all of the sticks white and allow to dry. Glue the cut pieces onto 2 of the regular sticks to form your fence. Have the children paint plant stems of differing heights and leaves on the sticks. have the children glue a flower to the top of each stem. With a marker the child can write "Welcome" on the final stick. Attach two ribbons to the top of the fence, and tie the ends in a bow. Glue the welcome stick onto the two ribbons. These are so simple, yet they look gorgeous and moms are sure to love them.

As you can see, crafting with craft sticks couldn't be easier, and you'll be totally amazed at how nice your creations turn out.
