Crafts Let's face it, children are a challenge as well as a joy.
We all want to keep them happy and entertained, build their self-confidence, and teach them all the virtues that we hope will someday make them successful, responsible adults. Crafts can help us in that endeavor. There is a sense of accomplishment and capability that comes from finishing something we start, and children perhaps most of all need that concrete reminder that they can create things. It is a step toward learning to finish what they start, to take an idea and see it through to its completion. There are other benefits too, I think.
