With the 4th of July rapidly approaching I wanted to take the opportunity to share a few more easy kids crafts and activities for it and I love this simple sponge painted American flag craft. Of course flag crafts are perfect for the 4th of July and using big things to print with means that it’s easier for smaller hands to who can stamp the paint onto the paper making it a great craft for toddlers or preschoolers, I’ve also shared a couple of little tips in this post to make this activity even easier for you to do with your kids.

The other week I had a virus which meant that we couldn’t go out and were limited to our house or garden. Unsurprisingly I didn’t have much energy either but it was nice to be able to get outside in the garden with the kids and sit around while they played.

Our free tree printable seemed the obvious answer, making a great starting place for a cute nature craft for kids.

Actually I enjoy getting this activity prepped in advance too which isn’t something that I’ll say about everything! While it does involve advance preparation it really only takes a few minutes as you’ll be able to see in the video I’ve made and it can keep your kids busy for ages. What’s more it’s something that my kids have returned to year after year, my daughter was a toddler the first time we made this but fast forward to now a few years later and it’s still an activity that both kids enjoy….
