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.…

What Easter Bunny project is best for small children?
“The Easter Bunny job – proves that my children can find chocolates everywhere.” In our village surrounded by mountains spring does not visit us in March at all. It’s warmer now, but rainy and dirty. I still have a DIY Valentine’s card design in my head, https://littlepuzzlesandme.com/what-do-children-create-on-valentines-day-2/ and “my little puzzles” are already convincing me that they want to start Easter projects. Patrick and Dorothy are delighted with the Easter eggs on all store shelves. Chocolate bunnies have been in my basket a few times during family shopping, but I managed to put them back on the shelf. And in Nursery, they are already creating several Easter projects with teachers.…

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…

How to make a spider that scares grannies?
“Long after Halloween, we have a house full of candies, spiders, bats, pumpkins, and a house full of fun.“ Is October a month of mysterious projects for you and your children? My kid’s creativity in October revolves around making spiders, scary masks, bats, spooky pumpkins, ghosts, and all the other decorations that are both terrifying and fun to them. Our grandparents visited us over the weekend and admired the Halloween decorations. Also, they brought a dozen sweets. Everything looked great, usually an afternoon with a good cup of coffee, until Patrick put the spider on Grandma’s plate and Grandma touched the hairy spider instead of a cup of coffee. Terrible, right? Grandma jumped and squealed, and Grandpa…
