Have Minions taken over your life yet? We haven’t even been to see the new Minions film yet but it seems like they’re everywhere we turn and my son is loving it! If your kids are spending their days doing minion impressions (it’s not just mine, right?!) then why not go the whole hog and make some of these minion puppets so that you can properly recreate the film at home or make up some new scenes!? There’s minion puppets for all ages here so there’s bound to be something you’d all enjoy!

We’re just back from being on holiday which always means one thing for us – the kids can be pretty much guaranteed to bring home a crazy amount of seashells with them! Living near the beach anyway we’re no stranger to making a lot of sea crafts for kids, but I thought it would be fun to round up some seashell crafts for kids to help give us a bit of inspiration for our haul! Which is your favourite?!

Sometimes a challenge comes through at just the right time and for us there couldn’t have been a better time to be asked to make a bouquet out of baby clothes. My days with a newborn are pretty much a hazy sleep deprived memory at the moment but my kids are about to welcome cousins into the family for the first time – so exciting! I originally thought I’d be doing this craft on my own but when my four year old son saw what I was doing he wanted to be involved too, this really was a joint effort. This cute craft would be a great baby shower idea or is just a fun gift to make for a mum to be!

Over the last couple of weeks I’ve shared a couple of posts on the Crafts on Sea Facebook page about quiet books and each time they’ve gone slightly crazy! People love quiet books and I can see why, they’re a great gift that you can make for your kid and they can help chill them out and help them learn at the same time. Fantastic! Seeing as they were so popular I thought it would be fun to make a little round up of some inspirational quiet book ideas. Stuff that looks cool but that is actually achievable too (I have two kids, I know what it’s like!) Hope you like them!

This weekend we had a brilliant day out at a beach hut on Mersea Island. It was so chilled out, nothing to do but chill in a deck chair while the kids played with buckets and spades and hunted for crabs. We love sea crafts for kids and as we had all day to laze around I figured this would be the perfect opportunity to try out some fun beach activities for kids from the book!
