4 Creative Photo Projects For Kids

Children love to be creative. Whether it’s finger painting or a spaghetti portrait of the dog, arts and craft projects are a fantastic way to have some fun by exerting those creative juices but it’s also great for keeping them occupied for a while.

If you’re always taking photos and are looking for new ways to display them, incorporating your latest shots into your child’s next art project is the perfect way to do just that.

Below are some fun ideas.

 
Drift Wood

CrEative frame for your memories

There are so many fun frames that you can make with your children that can be used to display your favourite photos. If you’re heading to the seaside for your next holiday, make a point of bringing back some drift wood that can be used to create a recycled frame.

 
Old Photographs

Create a jigsaw puzzle

Choose one of your favourite photos, enlarge it and print it. Stick the photo on some sturdy cardboard and coat it with an acrylic spray to protect it. Cut out some puzzle shapes and let your child put the photo back together again.  

 
Colouring Pencils

Craft a fridge magnet

Get your child to draw something from their imagination but leave a space for a photo in the picture. Laminate the drawing and attach magnetic sheets or tape to the back for an instant photo frame for your fridge.

 
Painting

Make a mobile

A mobile is a unique way to display your family tree. Checkout sites such as Pinterest for inspiration. There are tons of creative templates to use.

Using family photos in your next arts and crafts session is the perfect way to bond with your child and share some beautiful memories. Have fun!
