Ah, the final days of summer. It’s getting a bit darker out earlier and earlier each day as summer officially begins to wind down and autumn gets ready to make its debut toward the end of September. While we’ll soon be thinking about fall-themed craft projects, there’s still time to send summer out in style with some sunny, rainbow crafts for your child to enjoy. This week’s roundup has a few ideas that are bright on color as we say goodbye to summer.
