Im suppose to be doing art & crafts with kids in camp next week, and I need some good ideas, it can be anything that kids ages 4-11 can do doesn't nec have to be s/thing Jewish, but of course its a plus if it is.
Did any of your kids come home with something nice that they made in camp- something that you can actually use and not throw away.
thanks

bubble stationary. lots of fun.

dilute some dishwashing soap in a bunch of bowls. add some food coloring to each bowl. give each kid a straw. have them blow bubbles in the bowl so the bubbles nearly overflow. take a piece of paper and place it over the bowl, popping the bubbles. you'll have a nice bubble print. use lots of colors.

this is great to do outdoors. you can have them write a letter to their parents on the stationary once it's all dry. make sure the kids wear garbage bags over their clothes.

Oriental tradings website usually has good package deals for a bunk and supplies. Good ideas may be beading, scrapbooking, jewelry boxes, origami, sequin art on velvet, nail/string art with wood, simple needle points, friendship bracelets, lanyard, a/t out of rivky koenigs new crafting book...maybe a bird feeder, pen holder, decorative hair accesories, cellphone accesories/ keychains, a ring holder for when pol wash on shabbos, kids always like plaster(like something you wld do at plaster gallery) um.....

This is my absolute favorite blog for art ideas (mostly art projects; not so many crafts). We do something from it at least once a week.
