Drinking Straw Necklace
About this project -
This is an easy craft that can be done with young kids with supervision. I find large, round ended darning needles are the best to use.

Name Bugs
About this project -
I picked this one up somewhere as a kid. No one else in the craft community by me seems to have heard of this one before.
This project is rated VERY EASY to do.
Supplies -
- Paper (any size from memo pad size to letter size)
- Scissors
- Pencil
- Crayons
Project how to -
- Fold the piece of paper in half.
- With the pencil, write your first name in script,
about two child-finger's-widths or one adult-finger's-widths above the fold. You will probably want to make letters at least one inch tall. Younger kids might
want to make them BIG. The first letter makes the bug's head or antenna.
- Cut in from the fold, along the top of your outline,
and down the other end to the fold.
- Unfold your bug and turn it over.
- Color it in with crayons!
