We've been taking long walks in the mornings and evening, sometimes with bigger littles on bikes and sometimes not. We play outside for hours. It's all quite amazing. But it's the afternoon-during-naptime part of the day that I'm finding I need to provide something structured for my 3, 6, and 8 year old kids.

My friend Charlene has a fantastic little shop in town where she makes custom items and gifts, but also really cool craft kits. I get lost in her store and on her website. Since my kids are having fun with crafts during the afternoon, I just picked up a bunch of little items for my kids to work on (they are not messy crafts, praise the Lord!).

Meanwhile, Charlene just created a perfect Summer Kids Craft Club and I signed up my three. This is perfect for my crew and likely for yours too. There's a new themed kit every week for eight weeks. If you're local, you can pick up the kits. If you're not local, she ships them. What a fun package to receive every week! 

See the list of weekly kit themes, get all the details, and sign your kids up here. We're planning to use ours both to keep our kids busy, but also to help them think of others as they make these crafts with gifting and serving in mind. :)
