Marvelous Magnetic Frames
Total Time 2 to 3 hours Ages preschooler

This clever craft multitasks as a refrigerator magnet, a picture frame, and a work of art. It also provides a busload (or planeload!) of fun on a dreary afternoon.

What you'll need

  • Paper
  • Colored pencils and crayons
  • Scissors
  • Adhesive magnetic sheets
  • Craft knife
  • Photographs or digital images
  • Scotch tape

How to make it

  1. On the paper, have your child draw a design with lots of places for small images, such as a house, bus, or plane.

  2. Marvelous Magnetic Frames - Step 2

    Cut out enough magnetic sheeting to back your child's artwork and attach it to the drawing. Cut out the design. Use a craft knife to cut out the photo holes (a parent's job).

  3. Snip the pictures to fit behind the holes and tape them in place.
