November's Craft Ideas For Kids

When my kids get rowdy and start doing all sorts of nonsense, it is usually because they don't have anything better to do. Idle minds are a dangerous thing. If you need some activities to keep your kids busy, crafts are usually a good idea. So, here are some links to craft ideas for this month. Have your kids take a break from jumping on the sofa or messing up the house. Offer them some creative down time.

• Raising Olives shares her recipe for salt dough. Give your child a chance to enjoy some molding, sculpting and painting.
  
• Make paper plate sunflowers to brighten up your home. Davinie shares how she does it with her girl.
• Cute turkeys made out of pinecones from FamilyFun. There's even a video to show you how to do it.
• Another turkey craft: A Thanksgiving turkey by Crafts-For-All-Seasons. This one will look great as a centrepiece for your Thanksgiving table. There are step-by-step instructions and pictures too.
• Little Gobbler by Woman's Day. It's decorating a paper cup to look like a turkey. But more than that, you can fill the cup later with treats like popcorn. Yummm... I'm sure the kids will like that.
• Okay, enough of turkeys? How about a fingerprint fall tree craft? Really, really easy to do. Have a look at All Kids Network.

Hope you liked the suggestions. If you have anymore, please share here.
Have fun crafting.
