Whether their birthday is quickly approaching or Father and
Mother Day are holidays you prefer to forget due to your
inability to find something which can be a valuable present, a
gift that you will craft yourself and will portray your own
personal touch can go a long way into their hearts. Here are
some easy craft ideas for those capable to open your computer
and put it to work.
- Personal Music Compilation: You have heard them one thousand
times. That Frank Sinatra song they were dancing last Christmas
is engraved on your brain and you are catching yourself singing
the lyrics every time you see a couple that resembles them
crossing the street.
One of the most appreciated gifts you can
easily construct is that of a music CD containing all their
favorite songs. You can even create the CD cover and labels on
your computer and your gift can have a personal touch that will
make tears fall from their eyes as they open the wrapping paper.
Add a romantic photograph of them on the cover, put their theme
song first and last, arrange the music according to their
pleasing, and think of a good song that they do not know but
will love when hearing. Improvise as much as you can and you
will be glad you did.
- A Box Full of Memories: Last summer they have decided to
visit Spain, but their tickets, photographs, beach shells, and
museum passes have been inside a bag since then. Surprise them
with a "Box from Spain." Arrange their favorite photographs and
create on your computer a collage that will cover the sides of
the box. Print and place the year and their favorite Spanish
phrase, which they have been using since, on top. Place the
tickets and passes on a transparency paper and glue them inside
the box, organize the box according to days or places, and try
to create the box you would like to receive. Give them a chance
to travel back in time and smile to your ingenuity.
- A Photograph Album: The photographs they have been eager to
take every summer are scattered around or placed in boxes that
nobody has time to open up and see anymore. Visit your local
art or bookstore and purchase a couple of albums that can host
most of the pictures you know they cherish.
Arrange the
pictures in chronological order or just grab them from the box
and place them in the album while adding your own comments or
imaginary dialogues. You can also create the album yourself on
your computer and bind the pages together with string and
ribbon. Embellish the photograph albums with your own taste,
like black and white copies of photographs and experience how
it feels to have something truly valuable given to them.
- A Card Box: They are always searching those small pieces of
paper with those old recipes or sports scores on them, which
seem to have disappeared since you remember yourself. They are
always complaining and thinking they are now really old and
incompetent for not remembering where they have placed their
favorite cards the last time they used them.
Save them the
trouble of trying to locate their "valuable" pieces of paper
and create a box which can have a title and display their
favorite colors. Add some paper labels inside and give them the
chance to feel organized and prepared when the time to use them
again comes.
Creating the perfect gift for dad and mom is not that
difficult. It needs some imagination and time to invest. We
know you got both; you know it too. Good luck and happy
crafting times!

“ Splatter Painting Wrapping Paper”
toddlers activity & child craft
Its easy and fantastic fun, everyone loves to get a little messy. It is all part of the fun.
Watch your children create their own art work. They will get a real kick out of this activity when they can use their very own special splatter painting wrapping paper for that special gift to a friend, mom, dad, brother or sister.
Things you need:
• Smock, dad’s old shirt, is a great smock.
• Range of coloured acrylic paint.
• A brush for each colour.
• News paper.
What to do:
Take all your materials outdoors, lay out the paper on the grass. Use small stones or something light weight to secure paper.
Give your children a demo on how the splatter painting is done.
Show the children how to dip the brush into the paint; once paint is on the brush, the fun begins when you show the kids that flicking the paint with your fingertips splatters the paint on the paper.
This activity can be a messy job, so it’s best to cover clothing. Watch your children enjoy creating a very artistic splatter painting wrapping paper.
