The Animal Crafts Kit encourages children to develop their creative thinking and artistic expression. As children work to piece together their projects (paper bag puppets, plate puppets, tube animals, etc.) they flex their problem-solving skills. The activities are incredibly well organized. Each craft has it's own envelope and it's color coded. Start with the purple one. Glue is included along with easy-to-follow (kid-friendly) instructions for each activity. Activities vary in difficulty so multiple kids at different ages can engage, craft, and enjoy. The projects are designed to be standalone (no parent needed, but always encouraged), which develops independence, creativity, and confidence. The cardboard is thick and strong and all the materials in the kit are high quality. Two thumbs up!

I loved that the directions for each activity were extremely clear. The quality of the materials are very good.

Children practice creative thinking, problem solving, following instructions, dexterity, fine motor skills, eye-hand coordination, observation, self-expression, communication and so much more!
