My creative daughter made this chair using cardboard boxes with paper and wool to decorate. She refuses to allow me to throw anything away as she can see potential in everything!

Knights of the round table day at DS school.

*He did have a little help

DS (4) made this house out of shoeboxes last half term - he painted it all, and decorated it with pictures cut out of the argos catalogue :o

He likes painting - he painted a wall in the garden the other day, with blue and glitter paint, and is thrilled with his work!

DD is only 23 months, so her 'art' is more abstract at the moment - she scribbles a lot of circles and gives them features, then tells us they are babies, and enjoys playing with playdough, but she isn't at the stage where she can craft much without eating it...

My daughter loves cutting and sticking. She made a foam picture this morning then added detail with pens and paint. I thought it was fab

Both my boys favourite craft activity is to draw and cut out angry birds or star wars characters. They then decorate boxes etc with these or make games with them.

My little boy loves Play doh. He plays with it every day making different shapes with the cutters etc. He also likes using scissors to cut up paper and stick to make patterns.

My kids love getting arty. Whether its creative egg ideas at easter ( eggs factor with Susan boiled), clay dinosaurs or cute cards.

They love to paint on paper and all sort!

I love handprints so I can see how much DD is growing and calendars are fab. A great excuse to have artwork up all year round !

Sorry no pic... But DS 20 months likes drawing with crayons or felt tips. His art work usually consists of colourful splodges which he says is mummy & daddy!

To be honest, DS (5) most enjoys a bit of uninterrupted junk modelling.

Give him a pile of boxes, trays and lids, glue stick and sticky tale and he is in heaven.

All the better if there is paint too but it's not a necessity.

Love this one created by DS (4). It's like the pirate is waving hello. And he looks so naughty..just like DS..

My baby girl loves potato printing. It is great that little ones can do things like sponge printing or potato painting from a very young age.

My eldest loves to get the paints out and just 'experiment' with painting. Here he is trying wetting the paper first and also experimenting with adding salt onto the wet painting to make it have different effects. He used to adore clay modelling as his favourite activity for years and years so it is great to see him doing different arts and crafts now.

Who said food was for just for eating. My middle son loves to use dried pasta and pulses in his art and craft activities.

The madthings love crafts!

Our Easter decorations and Easter hats!

A Mr strong costume

And making clay shapes.

We do quite a lot of crafts, my fave 'tool' is my glue gun, the older madthings can use it with supervision.

They love painting and glue and glitter and also making stuff with felt and pipe cleaners, basically anything they can get their hands on!

Air dry clay is great and easy to use.

The only craft I don't like as much is paper mache as it takes so long to dry!

My Dd1 & Dd2 both love junk modelling. We used the raffia and some felt around some craft sticks to make a scarecrow, all items bought from hobbycraft.

This is Ds3 getting stuck in (literally) to one of his "big craft projects".
He is apparently making a television. He spends a huge amount of time creating a mess "projects".

My son loves making cards for the family for any occasion, Christmas, birthday, Easter. He loves getting out the glue and the glitter. We keep a nice supply in the house so if he is feeling creative he can just have a go!

My daughter is very creative and loves to make collages!
