Happy Monday!  This summer is zooming past faster than you can say ‘sunscreen’.  If you have a few more weeks left before you go back-to-school then you may be looking for easy kids crafts, games and activities to fill these last few “lazy” days.  Like our Kids Craft Camp week last year, I’ve once again compiled our favorite kids craft projects and products to share this week.  It’s a virtual kids craft camp– all the fun, minus the bug bites.

WIN a copy of Martha Stewarts Crafts for Kids

If you’re already heading back to school then don’t count yourself out!  Be sure to pin these projects for upcoming school vacations, next summer, or as gift ideas.  Don’t feel left out– we’ll save some virtual S’mores for you.  And before you know it, it’ll be time for summer fun once again.

To kick off this year’s Kids Arts and Crafts Camp Week, I’ve partnered with my hero Martha Stewart to showcase her new book: Martha Stewart’s Favorite Crafts For Kids  (<— affiliate link alert).  I was lucky enough to receive a copy for review, and I’m not lying when I tell you my daughter paged through it for HOURS before I could even get my hands on it myself.

 Easy Kids Arts & Crafts Activities Ideas

There’s a reason it’s the #1 book on Amazon for Kids’ Crafts… it’s full of fabulous ideas for kids craft ideas, activities, and games.  Better yet, these easy crafts are as simple as can be and can be made using materials you probably already have on hand.  Here’s a sneak peek at a few of my favorites:
