Make an easy mosaic craft with your kids!

Crafting with my kids is something I really love to do. I have always enjoyed simple crafts, but I also really enjoy how happy it makes my kids when we do these little projects together.  They enjoy the creating aspect, but they also enjoy the focused mom time. My two kids in the middle especially enjoy it and ask to do a project with me nearly every day.

One thing I love about blogging is that I get to share these things that we do, but I am also creating a scrapbook of memories that we can look back at later.  Elmer’s has issued a challenge to parents to take the Let’s Bond Quality Time Pledge. The pledge says that you will commit to spending 10-20 minutes a couple times a week creating, laughing, gluing, and bonding with your children.  This week we put our crafting skills to work and made a simple mosaic craft that my kids loved! I was compensated for my time writing this post. 

How to Do The Easy Mosaic Craft for Kids

To make our mosaic craft we used a one inch square punch to make it fast and easy. We used a bunch of colors of construction paper to make the pictures extra colorful.

The kids chose shapes for me to draw and then they covered the shapes with glue using their Elmer’s Early Learners glue sticks.

Then I just let them fill the shapes in with all of the squares however they wanted. It is so simple and an be adapted for all ages! Give the older kids the challenge to make patterns.

We ended up with a butterfly and a flower mosaic.

Spend some time crafting with your kids this week! They will thank you.
