Are you looking for ways to keep craft time with your children simple and fun? If so, I hope you will put some of the following suggestions to use.
1. Find the craft the kids want to make and then make a list of all the supplies you will need to make the craft.

3. Put a plastic table cloth down where you will be crafting.
4. Have all supplies laid out before you announce craft time to your kids.
5. Use non-toxic paints, glues, etc.
