How do children make colorful flowers?
We welcome the New Year – 2025, still in the cold and snow. My children, probably like all of us, miss the sun and colors. So we stay at home longer. We paint, draw and decorate, because after 2 hours outside our hands are frozen. Fortunately, we did not run out of ideas, only colors, so we focused on the spring theme. In just a few moments we created beautiful, colorful paper flowers from materials you have at home. Very easy to decorate with different, unique ideas. They can be used for a Valentine’s Day project, as Patrick added, or just to make your home look beautiful. https://littlepuzzlesandme.com/how-do-little-children-make-a-valentines-day-card/ What little…

What kind of Halloween scary project will little kids create?
“KIDS – Let’s haunt some ghosts and eat some candy.” I know that summer is over. Every morning and evening is frosty. If we are lucky, we have 12 degrees and 4 hours of sun. And the weekend started rainy and windy. On such weekends it is good to have something prepared for children. Halloween is coming soon and we will slowly present DIY projects related to ghosts, monsters, witches, pumpkins, etc. We bought pumpkins a few days ago, but we will carve the monster faces another day. Today is more decorative, more decorative, easier and more enjoyable. As always, you do not have to worry about buying materials for…

What hilarious toy will kids make out of popsicle sticks?
As a mother of two relatively young children aged 4 and 7, I have been carrying out creative DIY projects with them for several years. Whenever we have free time, on weekends or to brighten up boring, rainy days, we sit down in a creative corner. The DIY POPSICLE STICK ARCH is simple, mostly adapted to the age of small children, from materials that each of you has. And if you don’t have them, you will soon collect them. Because who doesn’t have popsicle sticks, wine corks, rubber bands, plastic bottles, paper cups, etc. https://littlepuzzlesandme.com/how-do-children-make-airplanes-from-popsicle-sticks/ The only thing that even we sometimes lack is glue and colored paper. In our…

How to make an Easter chick card with a dishwashing sponge?
We are slowly noticing that the days are longer and my children get a double dose of energy as a result. We spend entire weekends at the playground, and in the evenings, when we finally drag our children home, they still want to play and be creative. It’s good that the Easter holiday is approaching, the grandparents will take care of the children, and we, the parents, will have a rest. Below I will attach some Easter coloring pages for children to print out and today in the creative corner of “LITTLE PUZZLES “ also something related to Easter. What little puzzles will be created today? EASTER CHICK CARD What…

How do little children make a Valentine’s day card?
My “little puzzles” started their Valentine’s Day creation frenzy in January. One day my children visited a craft store with their grandmother. They brought home lots of heart-shaped stickers, plush balls, and flowers to cut out, all in red and pink, of course. The youngest, DorA, bought new pink glue. In total, it has 6 pieces and new paints.As usual, we were supposed to do a Valentine’s Day project that Patrick chose, but Dora focused on painting her hands, gluing everything, and creating a Valentine’s Day mess. What it all looked like and what was created for Valentine’s Day in the project below and on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/missmarbell_/ A little surprise…

How to make a card that will melt the hearts of grandparents?
“Grandchildren are always ready for surprises from grandparents. Make it work the other way too.” My creative corner was created primarily with children in mind. From an early age, I want to introduce them to the world of art. Primarily art that my children can make themselves and with materials that are available in my home. Their DIY projects must be simple, fun and creative. Very often, a family appearing in our house looks at their small decorations and praises their handicrafts. It is very nice for us, especially for my children. We often create “sharing is caring” projects. I found out that my children love to make crafts for someone (arts on stone,…

How to create a DIY bicycle out of cocktails straw?
“Use children’s art to color your life” It’s still snowing outside the window and it’s still -6. I tell myself, just a few more days and January will end (the coldest month), then February will be short and in March we will slowly welcome spring. For children, fun in the snow never gets boring, they don’t mind wet gloves. Recently they found more fun than building snowmen, building snow tunnels and snowball fights, now they are looking for icicles. On the way home, I lack energy, but the children’s energy doubles. It’s the perfect time for a new project in your creative corner. With a new craft idea from “my…

How do children create funny frog with pop-up tongue?
“When you have kids, your house is still decorated a month after Christmas or more.” You can still feel the Christmas atmosphere in my house. Christmas decorations made by children are still on all the shelves. New Year’s Eve time stays in every room. Balloons are hanging in the corners or rolling on the floor because they fell. I know it’s time to take off those ornaments, but my kids say otherwise. Yesterday, for example, they brought from school jars covered with fake snow. And my every attempt to bury their Christmas masterpieces ends in a fiasco. I think Christmas feeling will stay with us until spring. And when it comes to spring, I managed to convince…

How do children create a flying butterfly out of paper?
“Don’t limit your children’s full potential and give them free choice.” There were plans to make a fly ladybug from paper but with my children you don’t plan, with my children you create what comes to mind at a given moment. After many years of experience, I endorse this ideology of unplanned DIY projects. My kids choose the crafts themselves, so don’t expect them to ask for anything, such as getting a drink or wiping the glue off their shirts. Sit quietly on the sofa, relax, and be amazed that your children create something beautiful together. The DIY projects of “my little puzzles” do not require any cost from you.…
