My kids were SUPER excited to host a bunch of Emma’s friends for a Creativity for Kids party at our house! We were sent a fantastic array of craft supplies, which arrived in two colorful boxes that had my kids dancing and leaping for joy before they were even opened:
Decorating these bags was an easy way to open the party! I was impressed with the range of designs that the girls came up with. Even Johnny managed a somewhat boyish design on a pink bag (the paw in the lower left corner)
The pop art necklaces were a huge hit – simple to put together, and very pretty. This is probably the craft I am most likely to repeat at a future party:
One of the fun parts of the party for me was listening in on the crafting chatter:
What are your favorite party crafts? Do you have a favorite Creativity for Kids kit?
Thank you to Faber-Castell’s Creativity for Kids for providing the supplies for this party through MomSelect.

I also thought it was pretty funny that Emma said she remembered being in London – she was at most 9 months old!

I’m thinking I might do something like this for Wendy’s birthday party this year. That is if she’s still not obsessed with a “tea party like Mommy” had.

It was really fun – and simple with the Creativity for Kids kits. I highly recommend the pop art necklaces – very easy for kids to make and the girls LOVED them.

I am not so naturally creative so kits sound wonderful to me. My kids love sinking their teeth into any and all projects. My favorite would have to be baking though :)

These kits are fantastic, because they come with absolutely everything you need (even scissors and glue, if required for the project).

I love this idea. Perfect party activity.

Fun in a box! I love that Johnny made things his own, but are there kits that are more “boy?”
