All across the country, spring break season is just around the corner. Many families are planning trips and vacations, but just as many (if not more) are staying close to home for their spring breaks with maybe a few day trips or activities planned. What that means is disrupted schedules, down time, and bored kids—AKA the recipe for disaster! Fear not because I have 10 spring inspired DIY paper crafting projects that are fun for kids of all ages.
