It’s nearing the end of summer, which means it’s about time to start preparing for the next school year. Every kid dreads the end of summer because they have to start going to bed earlier, they have to wake up at a certain time (no sleeping until 10 in the morning), and they won’t be able to do a lot of the fun crafts for kids that they were so accustomed to doing. Once school starts, they won’t have the freedom that they had during the summer. One way to ensure that your kids’ summer ends on a high note is to let them do fun outdoor activities that will have them soaking up as much sun as they can before they have to go back to the classroom. All of these summer crafts for kids will have their frowns turning upside down! We all know and remember the disappointment we felt when our summer fun was over. The thing for your kids to do to remedy those feelings is to put a last minute bucket list together and do as many fun crafts as they can!

2. Pom Pom Seashell Snails
I bet after you got home from that family trip to the beach you discovered that your little ones brought back tons of seashells with them.
