Get Creative With Your Kids: Why You Need A Squirrel King Craft Kit

I love anything I can do with my kids that keep them offline. While I completely understand the draw to be plugged in, I feel it becomes too solitary and not what we should be fostering in our children. We need to be around people. We are social beings and all my best times included other PEOPLE not my alone time on a computer talking to "virtual friends". There is a place for that but REAL people are what adds to our life and I have been trying to explain without insisting this to my children for at least a year now as their growing fascination with the computer world has grown.

The only way to get my kids offline is to GIVE myself to them, find fun things for us to do as a family and give limits. Anytime I can get the kids to play a board game, throw a ball, hit the park, paint a picture, do a craft I am a happy mom.

Handsome isn't much for crafts. He finds them stressful because of his hand coordination so I do most of those with Goddess. SHE LOVES being creative.

We recently got a Squirrel King Craft Kit that included everything we needed to create three squirrels and a acorn hut for them although Goddess won't let me cut out a door, she thinks it is great the way it is.

The kit was so cute as it all comes in this paper acorn.

They come with everything you need to make three squirrels
