Hi Kathy Martin here with a few ideas to help get you through these long hot dog days of summer when you hear the kids utter, "Mom, I'm bored! There's nothing to do!" Fortunately we have Pinterest at our fingertips and a craft room full of all the supplies needed to whip up some pretty cool summertime crafts.
With a few toilet paper rolls, paint, card stock and glue you can create these adorable projects.

Since it's mid-summer, there should be a few popsicle sticks laying around to make airplanes out of!
While the kids are busy cutting, pasting and crafting up a storm, you can get a little scrapbooking in!
Christopher and I recently made this adorable kitty from paper plates. Another great idea from Pinterest.
Do you have an old puzzle in the closet, one that's missing several pieces? Christopher created this puzzle piece tree at camp recently.
This creepy rock bug is next on our crafty to-do list. Who knew you could make something this cool with a few rocks and sticks from the back yard?!?!
Happy crafting!
