I almost cringe to add this topic since with Rotation we are trying to avoid CRAFTS and use ART instead. (See the post Guiding Principals for Art Workshop for why ART is different than CRAFT.)

But there are times when we all need a craft project idea - perhaps for VBS. Here are suggestions for sources of CRAFT ideas.

  • Frugal crafts  Suggested by Lisa M.
  • Children's Ministry Magazine (Group Publishing) Suggested by Marg
  • Guildcraft (awesome service and products) and Pak-of-Fun magazine.  Suggested by Julie Burton
