Saturday afternoons at home are a great time to get stuck into a family, crafty activity. Put on some music, old clothes, prepare some tasty afternoon snacks and choose your activity!

Indoors

Recylce some old jeans

Revive some life back into a pair of your children’s old jeans. Most homes should have the necessary materials and all that is left is for your child to choose the desired pattern!
