Crafts
Instead of listening to your child whine about being bored all summer, how about something fun to do to keep him busy which doesn't involve their use of a computer, smartphone or any other type of electronic device? Then, try making this Easy Borax-Free DIY Slime and let the kids stick their hands in and get creative, literally.
As you can see from the video this is so easy to make and your child can even be part of the process. All you need are four simple ingredients you probably already have on hand: cornstarch, shampoo, water, and food coloring. After you've mixed some up with your son or daughter, watch their creativity come alive.
Psst... It's okay for you to have YOUR smartphone handy, though. That way you can snap lots of photos of their smiles and all the wonderful projects they make.
This Slime Craft is just one fun activity of many inspiring children to get creative which you'll discover in the new book 150+ Screen-Free Activities for Kids by Asia Citro from Simon & Schuster. Many projects in this book can be made with simple household items and there are even 72 activities for babies. Stay tuned for MBE's review soon, plus more kid-friendly craft ideas you'll discover in this new book.
