In the DO IT YOURSELF PROJECT, I will share with you my children’s creativity. We will move to a creative corner where time has stopped for little artists. This is where “my little puzzles” make art together, and they are too busy to call out “Mommy” all the time. Children have the joy of creating their unique creations, and we have the pleasure of momentary, precious silence.
For our craft, we use a lot of recycled items that you probably have in your cupboard, such as:
- paper rolls
- plastic cups
- glass or plastic bottles
- lids, caps
- wine corks
- straw
- milk boxes
- juices cartons
- ice cream popsicle sticks
- dry pasta, dry rice
- pumpkin seeds and many other such products
We will also show you how we create art using the “sharing is caring” method.
For these DIY projects nature gives us many creative, useful, free gifts. After walking together on Sunday, I find many treasures in children’s pockets, in my pockets, or in a purse, for example:
- stones,
- shells,
- chestnuts,
- flowers,
- pine cones,
- leaves,
and sometimes dried and unexplained products left in my purse for too long.
But in the creative corner the main thing for “my little puzzles” is to HAVE FUN.
These types of projects help children aged 2-6 in their development. They stimulate their creativity, and most importantly: they are cheap and easy to make.
