Hiya, Bex, and welcome to BYC! :frow

What are the paper crafts you do with the kids? We're thinking of bringing origami supplies to the family reunion in August as a craft for the kids to do. Maybe you'd have better ideas. :)

We're glad you're here!
Hi!
We always make giant paper chains for events like birthdays and holidays, and then we also like to look up fun projects that only require construction paper and glue/tape/staples. Since there’s a lot of us, there’s always an “event” happening, so we’re often crafting. We just made wall flowers and bunnies for Easter.
 
:welcome

Hi Bex, it's nice to have you here with us! Feel free to share a photo of your flock, if you'd like to share :)
