Our Experience
I'm always in search of great craft projects for the kids and I to do together, and even more so with the Winter in full swing (leaving us with tons of time on our hands to get creative indoors). I was excited by the concept of the all new Crunch Art Craft Kits by Little Kids Inc., and couldn't wait to see what the kids thought of them (bonus: they are mess free project kits, no cutting or gluing required! crafts without the mess? I was EXCITED).

We received both the Crunch Art Mega Set and the Crunch Art Frame Making Set, and both were loads of fun! I was concerned that it may be too difficult for the princess, and that maybe B would be the only one that could do it, however it was very easy, and we all had a great time! We started with the Mega Set; I laid out the "Crunch Art board" & tool, an assortment of fabric squares and let the kids pick a shape to "Crunch Art". The princess & B simply laid a fabric square on the foam shape (on the Crunch Art board) and pressed the plastic tool to "crunch" the fabric square. They repeated with multiple fabric squares in various colors, and both were so proud of the finished product, that we hung them up in the Playroom!

The next day we pulled out the Frame making kit for some more Crunch Art FUN, with the idea that we would put each of their pictures in the frames for family members as special handmade Holiday Gifts. Both the princess, and B made two Frames each and then we easily taped a picture on the frame insert/backing and attached it with the included plastic clips.

Both kits were so much fun and a wonderful way for the kids to get creative and use their imaginations! We are HUGE FANS of Crunch Art in our home, I know that we will be purchasing more of these wonderful craft kits for ourselves and as Gifts in the near future.

A great project.....without the mess! Wonderful Arts & Craft project to keep the kids busy on those cold Winter days!
