Who says partying and learning can't be a great combo? Creativity has no end; let's bring that into a craft party!

1 - Soap Making

Add a bit of a twist to your craft party by letting the kids go wild with making soap! No lye, no chemicals, homemade soaps are better in every way. Kids will get a chance to create colorful soaps in the scents they prefer and the shapes they like. How fun!

2 - Time for Coronation!

Every kid wants to feel like royalty at some point. Nothing boosts their confidence more than a tiara on their head and the feeling that they might be the king or queen of a magical kingdom. Make this come true by throwing a craft party where every child gets to decide what sort of a prince or princess they want to be. They get to design their crowns, name their kingdom, and show off their uniqueness in their own way.

3 - Bath Bomb It Away

Bath bombs are the new slime — only so much better! Have a blast with bath bombs where the kids learn how to make bath bombs and the opportunity to custom-make their own! Fun colors to choose from and to experiment with: what better way to boost creativity and fun?

4 - Sculpt It With Playdough!

Children have an inherent obsession with play dough. Take that obsession and turn it into a playdough-making party! Kids will learn how to make colored playdough using household ingredients and then turn their playdough into a work of art by sculpting fun things.

5 - The Art of Upcycling Crayons

Teach your kids how broken and empty things can be upcycled to create newer things! Take all their broken and used crayons and make them brand new with fun shapes and swirly colors. This party will be a colorful masterpiece.

6 - Slime It

Kids and slime, right? Somehow its gooey texture and bright colors make it an entertaining toy for children. Take their slime love and turn it up a notch. Let them make their own slimes: glittery, glowy, or fluffy! It'll be a squishy party they're bound to remember forever.
