If you’re looking for some new and interesting entertainment game for kids that will spark creativity in them, take a look at this great idea – a little theater! It reminds me of the many puppet shows I put on as a little kid. You probably have all the materials at home: an old cardboard box or two, a stick from the yard, fabric scraps, string, scotch tape and some markers. It takes only 30 minutes to make it, so get your kid involved and let the creative juices flowing! As soon as you’re done, you can also check out DIY finger puppets tutorial on our website. Have fun!

Playdough is very fun and is good for sensory development. Make it by yourself, and you will see that your kids will play all the time with it! You will need 1 cup flour, 1/4 cup salt, 2 tbsp cream of tartar, 1 cup water, 2 tbsp vegetable oil and gel food coloring. Mix all of your dry ingredients together in a medium saucepan. Add your wet ingredients, including a good amount of gel food coloring and mix well. It will remain roughly the same color, so add more in this stage, if needed. Place your pan on the stove top over medium heat. Stir continuously until it starts to get chunky. Keep stirring until it forms a big dough ball. You will know when to take it out, then place on a plate to cool. Once cool, knead it a bit yourself. The whole process takes about 5 mins. You can really whip out a multicolored set in no time.

All kids love puppet theaters, especially if you can make a personalized one at home! You will need shoebox with lid, 1 piece of cardboard, approximately A3 sized, 1 sheet of white copy paper, 2 sheets of dark and light blue A4-sized paper, 5 or 6 wooden skewers, 1 strand of LED Christmas lights (10 lights), small wooden beads, ruler, craft knife, cutting mat, scissors (kid-friendly), felt-tip pens, black and colored, pencil, scotch tape, glue and glue stick. Mark a frame on the bottom of the shoebox and cut it out. Draw 3 or 4 lines on a long side of the shoebox. Cut the slots with your craft knife. To make a platform, mark and cut the same lines as before on a slightly smaller piece of cardboard that should fit inside the box as shown. Read the rest of the tutorial in the source and enjoy!

If your little one likes to build, construct, watch pieces fit together, this project is totally for you! These magnetic pattern blocks will give your kid hours of fun! You can add them to the fridge or take them all to the trip to keep child busy during the flight. Here’s the tutorial: buy a bucket of blocks and magnets, and then with blobs of epoxy glue onto the magnets stuck them right onto the side of the blocks. Make sure that they’re drying separate from each other, because magnets can pull on each other and mess it magnet’s placement. Have fun!

I want to share with you today some photos of a really whimsy and stylish room for three girls. Although wall and floor colors are pretty simple and monotonous, the room shines with joy and light due to its awesome stuff all around beginning with pom pom and confetti garlands and ending with the comfiest teepee and charming pillows with whimsy prints. It seems like a mom of these three little ladies truly knows how to combine things! I love this room and it seems like I can look at it for hours noticing more and more new and amazing items and elements. Take a look, you too!

At all times any party consists of some small but very important details, for example, you can make really funny barnyard blowouts for a barnyard birthday party. Especially if kids will make them by their own hands. And sometimes it’s very interesting way to spend time while waiting for other guests to arrive. You can make barnyard blowouts with your kids. First of all you need to photocopy templates at 200 percent and then cut out. Trace onto card stock, cut out and use a utility knife to cut on dotted lines. You must make details from construction paper (you can use craft punches to make perfect circles) for kids to glue on. Then they can poke blowout through slits. Enjoy!

I like glamorous girl’s spaces, they usually showcase such true elegance and sophistication! Glam doesn’t really mean that the room should be definitely in pink shades and covered in glitter and sequins (although it might in reasonable quantities). Recently I’ve noticed that many of today’s most eye-catching glam spaces feature some vibrant colors like orange, turquoise or even splashes of neon. The key to success when designing girl’s room in glamorous style is in the right details and accents, all chic yet child-friendly. It can be mirrors in interesting frames, chandeliers, some poufs, artworks, etc. But once again: keep everything simple and whimsical, because being too fascinated with chic details you may find yourself buying some furniture and stuff in grown-up style. Have a look at some cool rooms below to get inspired!

Kids like adults always want to be noticeable at every party. So you gotta help them and they will feel beautiful, especially if you have a daughter. To create this chic pin you will need only the finest materials like crepe paper, a feather, and stars and ribbon. The concept is very easy: layer items on a triangle precut from card stock, then add a self-adhesive pin backing (available at crafts stores). If you don’t have much time or money it is very easy-to-make and simple craft. You can make this brooch with your kid and add some creativity.

I’ve always been drawn to Dutch and Scandinavian-style spaces, but in fact most of them I’ve seen were black and white. So, when I saw this bright and sunny nursery, I was surprised and thrilled, and I’m glad to share its photos with you! It’s eclectic, it does mix vintage pieces with the modern décor like in, I’d say, classical Scandinavian-style rooms, but it also has such vivid pops of color. What I like about this nursery also is that it’s very childlike: its unique design breaks all common rules and allows to use together bold patterned wallpaper, washi-taped walls, pom poms and funny garlands. It looks like a celebration of childhood and reflection of kid’s joyfulness. Enjoy!

You always can make a small home theatre for your kids. It won’t take a lot of time but you and your kids will have a very good mood. Make some puppets! You will need paper napkins, colored pencils, crayons or markers. Let’s start! Fold top corner down to bottom; reopen. Now fold bottom corner up to middle; refold top down. You gotta make left and right corners down to bottom. Fold bottom points up, angled, beyond top edges. Fold sides in at an angle. Fold bottom point up to meet the top center point; flip over. Take tips of center points to the back. Make right shapes for ears: for dog fold forward; for bear fold tips back; for bunny leave long. Draw on details.
