Kids Crafts: Dragon eggs
Theses kids crafts are an accent to a Harry Potter themed party or even a medieval party. But, you don�t need a party to have fun with these crafts for kids. You can do this with your child in a step by step process that will also be a great bonding experience with them.

Kids Crafts
Collect plastic eggs that are found around Easter time or eggs that are used for the sale of nylons. Paint them with fleck-stone paint to give them the look of enchantment. Leave them to dry as you make the �goo� for the inside of the egg. You will need the following ingredients:
1. Elmer�s glue
2. 2 large bowls
3. food coloring
4. Borax laundry detergent
5. small dragon figure
Mix 2 cups of white Elmer�s glue with 1 � cups warm water in a large bowl. Add food coloring to make the desired color. In the other bowl mix 1 1/3 cups warm water with 3 tablespoons of Borax. Then, mix the contents of the two bowls together. This will make a gelatinous substance. Place in an airtight container or plastic bag until you are ready to fill the eggs.
Once the eggs have dried; place a small figure of a dragon inside the egg. Add the goo or flubber. Close the eggs and put them in a basket until your little guests arrive.
When the children arrive, give each of them an egg. Tell them that they are to keep the egg as warm as they can so the dragons can safely hatch. When you are serving the cake or are opening gifts, have the guests open their dragon eggs as well. The gooey substance will resemble what oozes from the egg when a dragon hatches. Girls might think it is gross, but rest assured the boys will love it!

Special kids crafts such as these can come in very handy during the holiday season.
Cards can say so much and free cards that you design yourself are sometimes the best. A wonderful and inexpensive kids craft is right at your fingertips and very simple to make.

Kids Crafts
Trace your child�s hand on some construction paper. Cut it out and fold it between the middle and ring finger. This is also sign language for I love you! This will easily fit in most envelopes that you can purchase at any general store. Most discount and dollar stores have a variety of envelopes in many colors and textures in their paper crafts section. You can coordinate the colors with the construction paper to make it very appealing.
Write out the greeting inside the palm of the hand card and be sure to date it. This will make a lasting memory for years to come.
A variation of this is to find a favorite poem. Print it out on your computer using whatever creative paper you might have or can purchase. Trace your child�s hand on the paper and date it. You can also use ink or paint for the impression of the hand.
Frame these kids crafts and wrap them for mother�s day, Christmas, or any other holiday or occasion. For more crafts for kids this holiday season, you can visit us at www.treasureboxkids.com for all your children�s clothing needs as well as great parenting advice.
