Need arts and crafts ideas

So my outdoor party got rained out for Sunday and I may not have enough time to book any entertainment. I think I am going to do some arts and crafts projects.

DD is 5 but there will be some 3 year olds. Good mix of boys and girls. It will be in the lounge of my building so nothing too messy.

Any suggestions?

Try Michaels/AC Moore. They have great craft kits for kids....do you have a theme? Close to easter..how about decorate an easter egg...get foam egg shapes and buy some stickers. I did this for DS' birthday with pumpkins. Kids had a blastChat Icon

Michael's has gigantic cardboard guitars that come in a pack of 5 (I think).

Buy those and decorate with stickers, stick-on gems, glitter glue, etc...

Or...

Decorate sunglasses with small gems (think Snooki Chat Icon )

What about buying some wooden stars and the kids could make a name plaque for their door/room. They could either paint them or use stickers etc.
Something like this in the shape of star. You could get stickers that are rock star related and alphabet letter stickers etc

Foam stickers are great for that age! There are some that are sparkly and they have a ton of different themes.
