Busy Bags

Last week a friend in our community group at church came up with the idea of “busy bags” to help entertain our kiddos when travelling or while cooking dinner, etc.  She sent us a couple links of ideas and asked if anyone else was interested in making them with her.  Well, the response was great and so about 13 of us chose a craft; either for a toddler, preschooler or one of each.  We all made 13 bags of our specified craft and then got together and exchanged so now we all have 13 (or 26 if you did both age groups) different crafts to play with at home, in the car/plane, at a restaurant, or at the doctor’s office.  We have been using them at the table while I’m cooking dinner and the boys have loved them.  I have only showed them a couple because I want the newness the last for as long as possible before I bring another one out.  Lots of pictures so feel free to just scroll on down, I wanted to include all the crafts.
