Now that school is almost out – I wanted to create a blog post that would make it easy for you to plan a few kid friendly crafts to do this summer.

One of my current obsessions when it comes to kid crafts is the potato masher. Who knew that it could be used to create so many fun creatures!

When using the potato masher you are only limited by your imagination. It’s easy to use and a great art tool for toddlers and preschoolers.

It is also something that everyone either has already in their kitchen or can include in their craft supplies!

Here is a list of simple crafts that you can do today with a few basic supplies. So if it’s a rainy summer day or if it’s too hot to be outside and you have a bored toddler or preschooler on your hand this is the list for you!
I have also have included a list of the basic supplies that you’ll need for these crafts.
