7 Days of Kids Crafting: Rockin’ the BFF Bracelet

If they’re already whining “I’m bored” with summer vacation, we have quick fixes to keep them out of your hair: crafting family-style. So keep checking back all week for 7 Days of Crafting with Kids.

Full disclosure: this may be more for mom than the kids. Remember taping the ends of your friendship-bracelet yarn to your knee so you could work your magic without messing up?

The Friends 4Ever Bracelet Making Kit has taken the old summer art to new heights. These kids will never know just how good they have it!

Packed with instructions (hello – did we have any of those??), a variety of looms plus every color of thread their little hearts could desire, the kit from ALEX Toys made me wish I still had the phone number of my BFF imprinted on my heart. With everything that’s in the set, the $22.91 price over at Amazon is a steal.

A warning: packed with beads for jazzing up their jewelry, this isn’t good for kids with younger brothers or sisters or even pre-schoolers who still put things in their mouths.
