When I think of spring I think of flowers blooming, birds chirping, and LOTS of sunshine. The winter woes are being lifted and it’s time to have some fun outside in the sun. On days when we can’t get outside, we like to do fun spring crafts that bring us a little joy. This Spring Crafts Bundle is the perfect addition to your spring lesson plans or at-home activities with the kids. This bundle comes with 6 fun crafts to do on rainy days or just for fun!
