Making fun crafts for kids with your Cricut machine is one way to enjoy your love of crafting while involving the little ones near to your heart. Many children are drawn to arts and crafts and truly enjoy the artistic process. Whether it’s in their nature already, or they want to imitate Mom and Dad, they love to create. Either way, children are often little budding artists, and you can help them to explore their creative side and have some fun together in the process! With so many children participating in virtual learning or homeschooling, why not make this an opportunity to learn something new together?
Today, we have picked out 10 of the craftiest crafts for kids found on the site. These crafts vary in materials, ages, and holidays. You can find crafts that are suitable for all ages and difficulties here on Design Bundles. Who knows, maybe your little one will want their own cutting machine by the end of it!
This adorable snowman snow globe design is so cute! To create this design, you'll need 7 layers of paper, each a different color. The layers will be stacked on top of each other to create a 3D layered snowglobe. You will want to attach the layers with sticky dots or tape. If you are needing some guidance on creating a 3D layered design, check out the Halloween Spooky house from a previous blog post.

Valentine's Day is one of the most fun holidays to celebrate as a child in school. Usually, the child is asked to create a valentine box to hold all the cards and gifts they receive in class, as well as design cards or small gifts to hand out to their classmates. This year, help your child cut these adorable Valentine's Day cards out with your cutting machine and then slide the crayons into place like the photo below. After your child classmate reads the card, they can then color in the image with the crayons you provided, attach a ribbon to the top and use them as a bookmark! How cool is that?

This Halloween jack-o-lantern design is like the snowglobe 3D layered design posted above. This file has 5 different layers to stack on top of each other to create a 3D layered look.

After your machine has cut the layers, your child will stack the layers on top of each other with sticky dots or a glue stick to hold the layers together. Once completed, you can place the final project in a shadowbox or hang it in a window or on the wall to enjoy. Add some spooky lights around the inside of your shadowbox for an extra element to your design.
