Doing crafts with kids can be one of the most rewarding things we get to do as parents, aunts and uncles, friends and teachers – BUT (and that is a big BUT), it can also be one of the messiest and most hair pulling inducing events, too. The founds of Colortime Crafts must have experienced that, too because they have an entire line of crafts for kids that are easy to do, fun, and clean! I received a Colortime Craft kit in exchange for my honest opinion.
What did I think?
We received the Colortime Recycle Tote Bag craft kit. This kit comes with a reusable shopping tote emblazoned with the Reduce * Reuse * Recycle mantra meant to promote being green and recycling more, along with three non-toxic fabric markers. Miss LadyBug thought this was the great craft idea ever – she sat down and intently colored her tote bag, being extra careful to stay as much within the lines as she could and really make it look great. She had a ton of fun with it, is excited to see me head out to shop with it and stayed clean! Now, don’t get me wrong, I do love a good messy craft for kids from time-to-time, but there are days when I know we need to go somewhere later in the day that it just will not work for us to fingerpaint that morning or get out glue and buttons, etc. Keeping one of these fun crafts for kids from Colortime around (they have shirts, bandanas, pillowcases, even backpacks and so much more!), I know I can keep the girls engaged and entertained with minimal mess. Plus, they will have a great keepsake after the fact!
