Can anyone give me some ideas?

[M&M]

I am in charge of the 2-4 year olds at my church. I would like to do some easy crafts with them during our time together. It needs to be something simple that we can help them with, and since the area is carpeted I don't want to do anything with paint. Any ideas??? TIA

Are you looking for crafts that tie in to your lesson, or just fun stuff?

Definitely explore our Crafts for Kids (http://www.storknet.com/cubbies/kidscrafts/index.html) cubby. Here are a few projects I think would work well for that age group that are also not too messy:

~ Confetti Butterflies (http://www.storknet.com/cubbies/kidscrafts/apr04.htm)
~ Rain Stick (http://www.storknet.com/cubbies/kidscrafts/apr02.htm)
~ Sticky Collage and Sun Catchers (http://www.storknet.com/cubbies/kidscrafts/mar02.htm)

Take a look at the Articles and Ideas page (http://www.storknet.com/cubbies/kidscrafts/articles.htm). Also, check your library for some of the books from our Recommended Books list (http://www.storknet.com/cubbies/kidscrafts/books.htm).

Hope this helps. Have a great time with those kids! :)

walmart has fun foam shapes of all kinds that you can use to make picture frames, they would just glue them on, or maybe make door hangers
