3D Hot Air Balloons Hot Air Balloons are the best things to ride on. We had some plans last year to go on a hot air balloon but that was disrupted due to Covid-19. So we thought about creating some and sharing it with our friends. The 3D effect of the hot air balloon popping off the page combined with the variety of colors makes it a beautiful craft to display at home or school for others to admire. You can even make several different colored balloons and hang them up as part...y décor for a summer party. Check this link for instructions: https://www.kidsnkraft.com/spring_balloons

Homemade Crayons: 1. Collect any stray crayons roaming around- broken is perfect for this project. Any color, any brand. 2. Peel off the label. 3. Find a mold you can use that is oven safe. You can fine different shapes/sizes for this activity.... 4. Sort the colors according to what you want the crayons to look like. Rainbow, multi colortotally up to you. 5. You can fill the molds as high as you like. About half will make a thinner Crayon and 2/3 will make a thicker crayon. You don’t want to fill it too high or the wax will spill over. 6. Set your oven to the lowest temperature. Mine was 350F. Place your mold on a baking sheet (in case the wax does spill) and put it inside until the wax melts. This will vary by oven and by the size of the crayons but mine took roughly 30 minutes. See more
