I often struggle to find creative activities that are simple enough for my 3.5-year-old daughter.

She’s always curious about what happens when you mix different colors and loves to see the new colors they create.

To satisfy her curiosity, I developed a little game: mixcolors.app

She loves using it on her iPad, especially before bed. It's a fun way for her to engage with colors, and it also helps her practice reading and speaking new words. There’s nothing for sale—just wanted to share this fun and educational tool with other parents and craft enthusiasts!

Hi, guys!

I am running an art based summer program at a camp for kids aged 5-9. Do you have any activities in mind that your kids have especially enjoyed consistently? I find some of my ideas to be either a hit or a miss, and going to Reddit to collect all the hits seemed like a good idea.

Hello, wonderful moms of Reddit!

Do you have a creative little one between the ages of 2 and 4? I have a fun and engaging activity that might just be the perfect way to spend some quality time together! As part of a school project, I’m inviting kids to design their own dream outfit—anything goes, there are no limitations!

Here’s how it works:

1.	Gather some crayons, markers, or colored pencils.
2.	Ask your child to draw an outfit for themselves. Encourage them to think about their favorite colors, patterns, and any fun details they want to include. The sky’s the limit!
3.	Once they’re done, share their masterpiece with us! You can post a picture of their drawing in the comments or as a separate post with the tag #KidsDesignChallenge.

This is a wonderful opportunity for kids to express their creativity and imagination without any restrictions. Plus, it’s a fun way to keep little hands busy!

Happy drawing!

Prepping for summer crafts 😄 other than the obvious paper, markers, glue and scissors, what things do you get for your kids to make and decorate their crafts with? I feel like I could use some new ideas for my kids.

Greetings!

My 3 year has a "book" that she loves. I say "book" because she it's from National Geographic and it's somewhere between a book and a magazine. Anyway, it's falling apart and I think the best way to salvage it would be to just cut the pages apart and transfer them into something new.

Not thinking leatherbound collectible, just something to keep it together until she inevitably forgets about it the day after I give it back to her.

Any thoughts on how I or we could do this would be appreciated!

Right now sharpies get the most use but I need to buy new markers. I've been debating alcohol markers but I've never used them, any reviews on how kids feel about those ones? Are there better options that come in big packs with lots of color options?
