Frequently Asked Questions
1. What are the benefits of arts & crafts for children’s development?
Arts & crafts are fantastic for developing fine motor skills, concentration, and self-expression. Through creative activities, children learn patience, problem-solving, and even early literacy skills when following instructions. Crafting encourages them to explore their imagination, building confidence and joy in creating something uniquely theirs.
2. How do I choose a good gift for a child who already has everything?
For kids who seem to have it all, consider gifts that provide an experience, like arts & crafts kits. These allow them to make something unique and explore their creative side. Craft kits, such as beading sets, peg doll kits, or drawing and colouring books, offer hours of engagement and the thrill of creating something from scratch.
3. What is typically included in arts & crafts kits?
Arts & crafts kits can include a wide range of materials to support different creative activities, from drawing and painting to building and decorating. For younger children, art supplies like crayons, colouring sheets, and finger paints are popular. Older kids may enjoy more detailed kits, like knitting sets, peg dolls, or beads for jewellery making. Each kit provides tools and supplies for specific projects, offering something special for every creative interest.
4. What arts & crafts activities are suitable by age?
Arts & crafts can be adapted to all ages. For toddlers around 18 months, finger crayons and simple colouring books are ideal. Preschoolers (ages 3-4) enjoy stickers, watercolour painting, and easy crafts like peg dolls. From 5 years and up, kids can try more complex projects like knitting with the Moulin Roty French knitting kit or creating jewellery with beading sets. Age-appropriate tools ensure each child can fully engage and enjoy the crafting experience.
