Doing a small party for DD7, will have some younger kids and older kids there too.
Looking for a cool craft idea to do with the kids. One year I bought blank puzzles and we decorated those, it was a hit! I'd love another neat kind of craft that kids don't typically do at home.
I thought of beads, but would want a slightly more unique idea, or maybe there are some kinds of unusual beads I could get.
Not a huge budget, but willing to spend more than construction paper and glue
Thanks for any suggestions!!!

Not neat at all but not super messy. Also it's fun even for teens but may be too old. Glue crayons (name brand only) onto a canvas and blow dry it. Google image crayon paint art. Needs adult supervision but it's really really cool. Or just get onto pinterest and search for craft ideas.

Decorate small wooden jewelry boxes, can buy for cheap in bulk. Tie dye tshirts. Decorate cookies or cupcakes. Make necklaces. Buy pre-sketched canvas that they can paint.

So fun!!!
I love the jewelry box or jewelry idea. Interesting beads make it special.
Have you seen the small foam by number sets? Those can be cool.
Are you artsy enough to have the kids make foam bags?
Duck tape wallets or flower pencils?
Melted crayon makes a beautiful project but if you melt crayons, make sure you have enough hair dryers so the kids are not waiting forever.
Don’t use paint or anything too messy. Children come in their nicest non-Shabbos clothes and while they are washable, and the moms know there is a good chance the shirt is coming home dirty with ice-cream, it is not fair to use blue paint which says washable but may or may not come out.
Someone mentioned tie-dye. It stains. You can do a tie-dye party, but you must tell the moms in advance.

Sock puppets are fun. You can prep in advance and just have them choose eyes, hair, accessories. Then make a skit with everyone's puppets.
