How the children made a jumping bunny out of paper?
“EVERYBUNNY NEEDS SOMEBUNNY SOMETIMES” I’d like to say that it’s spring outside the window, but I will lie. The snow and frost are back again, which of course is amazing for my kids. They have another snowball fight and come home drenched. However, this does not change the fact that my children have lost all their energy. In the afternoon, when they are at home, they still want fun or creativity. Very often my older son jumps, runs and behaves like the rabbit from the “Duracell battery” ad. This gave me the idea to create with my “little puzzles” a DIY PAPER BUNNY. But not a calm, cute bunny sleeping…

What children can create with plastic bottles and straws?
There were plans, as always, to make a paper animal other than a spider. With my son, you don’t plan, with my son we create what comes to his mind at a given moment. Patrick now chooses shapes, colors, and the entire handicraft design. Original design idea, it was about a ladybug or a bird or anything else but not a spider. However, since I prefer children to choose what they create and use their own imagination, I accepted the spider with feigned delight. The DIY projects of “my little puzzles” do not require any cost from you. They are usually made of items intended for recycling (plastic bottles) or…

What decorations do children create from dried flowers?
“Today’s children need to spend more time with art and even more time with their parents.” In the creative corner not only my children today but also me. Together we will create a DIY project that will help us move from Christmas decorations at home to universal decorations. As for January, we do not have much choice in the natural gifts of nature, so we will use spring and summer resources: dry leaves, chestnuts, dry flowers, grasses, and herbs. https://littlepuzzlesandme.com/how-do-children-make-art-from-leaves/ Everything that my „little puzzles” managed to bring home. I always write that my children collect tons of treasures from joint walks. But I found myself doing it too. We just love natural decorations at home. And we like to spend…

How do children make Christmas trees from pine cones?
“Good art is not what it looks like but what it does to us”. – Roy Adzak My little puzzles and I took a trip to the forest to collect nature’s beautiful gifts – pine cones, for our Christmas projects. Then we went with my son to his favorite decorating store. We bought everything we needed to make our DIY art: more glues, paints, glitters, strings, pom poms, and colored paper. When my son picks glitter colors, I notice a lot of Christmas stuff around. I stopped next to the shelf with front door decorations. These door decorations are made of plastic, green Christmas tree branches with plastic bells and…

What Christmas decorations do my children make from popsicle sticks?
We are two weeks away from Christmas. My little kids bring home Christmas decorations every day, which they make at school and Nursery. In children’s places, the Christmas tree is already decorated. In our home not yet, a slight delay this year. But we have more time to make decorations for the Christmas tree. For all those who, like us, have not yet managed to decorate the Christmas tree, we will create snowflakes and a Christmas tree from popsicle sticks. In addition, before Christmas, everyone is busy preparing Christmas dishes, shopping, and cleaning, so we leave the simplest and least labor-intensive projects for last. This is not our first DIY…

How do children create decorations for light switches?
“EVERY CHILD IS AN ARTIST” Picasso It’s raining outside, my kids already are bored with lego towers. Also, little houses with blankets and pillows are no longer fun. Every room in my house looks like a landscape after a tornado, earthquake, and flood at the same time. This is the main reason why I take my children to the creative corner and share with you the “little puzzles” DIY project. What do the light switches look like in your home? Especially in the children’s room, where we have colorful curtains, bedding, carpet, and the rest of the furniture and only the light switches are original basic – not matching colour.…
