crafts

Fall is my absolute favorite time of year, and for some reason ignites that part of me that loves doing crafts with the kids. I’m always buying materials for more projects than I’ll finish, but it’s so much fun! Every year it seems the ideas available online get more abundant, and some of this year’s are sooo adorable! Most of these websites are finally figuring out that moms don’t have time for complicated or excessively messy projects and many are suprisingly simple.

Find at Apples For The Teacher

Here’s the best selection we found: (so far)

Apples For The Teacher – A popular site with teachers, crafts are well organized with complete list of supplies needed and appropriate age for the craft-which is mostly primary.    One of our easy favorites is the Paper Plate Pilgrims.

DLTK.com - A family of sites run by a family, this link will take you to a pageful of fun Thanksgiving activities that you will  bookmark if you homeschool. Well organized and with literally NO distractions, you’ll find printables, games, puzzles, coloring pages, recipes, and of course, Thanksgiving Day crafts.

tday5Amazing Moms - The crafts here are significantly more sophisticated, hence a little more tday4time consuming. You will find many for the older crafters in your family, and some could even make a cute housewarming gift if you are going to Grandma’s for turkey. One of our favorites is the Harvest Necklace Craft for girls and the Mayflower Ship of Thanksgiving for boys. Then for mom…

Danielle’s Place - A website where you will find hundreds of inexpensive crafts and activities including complete Sunday school lessons and Bible-based lessons for Christian home schools. You’ll find an activity called ‘Thanksgiving Poem Placemat’ and are given a poem to write on the placemat. You could also write your own poem, or a list of what each child is thankful for on it, too. One year my oldest son wrote a short Thanksgiving Day poem that was so precious it was framed and on the wall for many years. It’s now or never!

Family Fun - Activity and craft lists are never complete without taking a look at what Family Fun has to offer. Napkin rings, placecards, centerpieces, and lots of printables, there is way too many cute ones to mention just one. You have to check out Thanksgiving Turkey Luminarias-it’s one I’ve never seen before.

I’m sure there’s many more, and we’ll add more as we find ones on different mom-blogs-like yours? Comment below and share yours!
