Crafting with paper is an inexpensive way to let creative hands and minds flourish. And it’s a craft supply that almost always all of us tend to have on hand, as it doesn’t take a lot of room to store. What kind of papers do your children love to craft with? Busy patterned paper or sheets of origami paper? From scraps to big sheets, a fresh piece of paper and paint, markers or crayons is sometimes all kids need for hours or content crafting.
