Well I suppose there are worse things that he could be addicted to, at least with craft he is using his creative skills.

What happened was one day I was trying to think of something different that we could do, we had had a couple of rainy days and after a few days of being inside so the children have had enough and were climbing the walls. There are only so many tea parties with the teddies that you can have in one day.

So off we went to the shops to see what we could come up with. Well we found the craft box of all craft boxes (K-Mart), it has 1001 pieces, to make a mess all over my dining table, but I am sure that we will have lots of fun with it.

This is when a glass top table is good, as it just wipes off, I think if you had a wooden table you may need to put some protection down first, or you may have paddle pop sticks stuck to your table.

We did have lots of fun, the little man has made many creations already, I think that we have only had the box for a couple of days now. We have had to get the craft box out several times during the day.

He is at the stage where he wants to do everything by himself  “I can do it mummy, by myself” so I gave him a selection of bits from the box and let him loose.  Here are some of the creations that we have come up with so far. I did help with some of them, as I can’t help myself either, so I know where he gets it from.

Do you have fun with craft and creating things?
