Summer Crafts

Kids have a lot of free time during the summer months to do all sorts of stimulating and fun activities. Now, all you need to do is figure out what those activities are going to be. Fortunately, we have fun summer (and end-of-summer) crafts for kids that keep little minds and hands busy. Wondering how to keep toddlers busy? At Discount School Supply, you can find preschool crafts for toddlers for the entire summer. We also have ideas and supplies for keeping older kids creatively inspired. Also, if you have good ideas of your own, you can often find supplies that help make those ideas possible.

Have Fun with Figures
The human form can be a wonderful blank canvas and your creative projects can require them to draw, color or paint these forms. For example, we offer blank cardstock faces, hands and feet in diverse colors for creative expression. With these forms, kids can create their own human figures using their imaginations. They can also use them to create captivating characters from storybooks, goofy monsters or career professionals.

Make Wonderful Things with Wood
Summertime is a great time of year to introduce kids to the wonders of making things with wood. Since wood is durable and long-lasting, whatever they make with it is sure to become a family keepsake. Browse our craft kit collection to find a variety of craft projects involving pre-cut and shaped wood pieces that kids can decorate however they wish.

Customize Everyday Items Kids Use
You may have already discovered that paper plate summer crafts for preschoolers and younger kids are proven winners. However, to avoid boredom, you can have kids decorate a whole bunch of other usable everyday items. Ideas include mugs, photo frames, treasure boxes and more.
