Hi Friends! I know many of you have kids at home, and you’re looking for ways to entertain them. You may or may not have the supplies required for this simple mixed media project, but if you don’t, you might be able to order them online through amazon. My hope is that I can offer a little something for kids to do to occupy the time off school.
This project is great for kids ages 8+. Younger kids may be able to handle it with some supervision (especially on the cutting bits!) If you’ve got any questions, let me know, and I really hope you enjoy! 🙂
