It's a brand new season and we have to admit that autumn is one of our favorites. Not only is it time to pull out the pumpkin spice, sweaters, and crockpots, but it's time to dig into some fun and creative fall crafts, especially for homeschool kids and parents.
From woodworking to handicrafts like knitting and crochet to painting and everything in between, Made It Myself TV is proud to offer an exceptional opportunity for all kids, homeschool or after-school, to learn an array of new skills within the arts and crafts realm.
Not only do arts and crafts encourage children to be creative and use their imagination, it also helps them to learn so many valuable skills that are important in their development. By incorporating sensory play and art activities into young children’s daily lives (ages 1-5) it engages their senses and develops connections. And the benefits of arts and crafts grow as your children do. As children get older, arts and crafts projects are impeccable learning tools that foster creativity and help in problem solving, critical thinking, and ultimately help in establishing confidence and independence.
So, we've compiled a list of fall fabulous and autumn themed crafts that kids and parents are going to love. From crochet finger pumpkins to napkin rings, to wreaths and garland and a fall aesthetic doll room, you'll be priming your kiddo's creativity and having lots of fall fun while you're at it! And this is just the start. We'll be creating an array of seasonal and other themed Made It Myself TV Recommended Homeschool Videos, as well as basic how-to's that will help your children get started with knitting, crocheting and so much more.
