Craft Roundup: Fun Outdoor Projects for the Family

As soon as it's warm outside it's time to hit the great outdoors! We've been cooped up inside our houses for far too long this past winter. It's time for baseball and soccer games, bike rides with friends and impromptu picnics. This week's roundup celebrates the out-and-about kid, from spending hours outside exploring to heading out to a best friend's birthday party. Which DIY idea is your favorite this week?
