Creativity for Kids Review

Sponsored Review

I love being creative, but I often need a boost getting started. I think the same holds true for kids - especially ones who don't see themselves as "crafty". Creativity is a vital part of being successful in life and it goes hand in hand with adaptability and problem solving! 

This past weekend at our Toy Time Party kids of all ages, and lots of adults too, used their creativity and imagination to make things, and had a great time doing it, with Creativity for Kids' Creativity CansThe Creativity Can comes in small and large, and now in six different themed cans. The small can is perfect for a single child or pair to create with, and the large can would make the perfect holiday party, scout troop or Christmas Eve activity! 


I love that with the Creativity Can we can be creative and use a variety of different types of materials without having to invest large amounts of money into purchasing a variety of materials. Plus, every Creativity Can is different so they encourage flexibility and promote problem solving. 


Plus, there are now themed cans if you are looking to be creative around a certain subject. The themed cans include art, build, critters, motion, music and stories!


At the party we also used Creativity for Kids' headband kit, and everyone loved
making and wearing them! Kids as young as four were able to design their own headbands with a little help. We can't wait to check out their other craft kits and my kids, along with many at our party, are definitely adding them to their holiday wish lists!
