March is National Craft Month which, of course, means March is sure to be a fun month! It also means it will be a fun month to spend time with grandchildren because while we can, and should, make crafts with them all year long, a month with a focus on making crafts is one when holds the potential for great times and memories for sure!
- Puzzle Pins - this craft says to use a die and cut a puzzle shape - which you could certainly do if you have a die, but if you do not, check your closet for a puzzle with missing pieces or one which you are not going to put together again and use the back side of the pieces to make pins which your grandchildren could give to friends, teachers, the secretaries at their school and/or church, neighbors and mom to brighten their day! You'll find the craft at this link - enjoy!

- Plastic Spinner Bottle - Spring has to be arriving . . . at least I am hoping it does!!! This is a fun craft which requires the assistance of adults as we do not want to let children make the cuts in the bottles. There are enough "steps" to this craft so even young children will have lots of things they can do to make spinner bottles which they could give to their parents, teachers, neighbors . . . You'll find the craft at this link - enjoy!

- Pencil Jewelry - I LOVE the look of this craft! So fun! So unique! So colorful! This would be a lot of fun to make with the children you love! They could make these for friends, teachers, their mom, and anyone whose day they want to brighten! You'll find the craft at this link - enjoy!
- Tie Snakes - I've made these before with children; it is fun, fairly simple and a great way to use unused ties - or visit a thrift store and pick up a few ties if you do not have any! You'll find the craft at this link - enjoy!
