Popsicle stick craft ideas

I love popsicle stick crafts because they don't require much to put together. They are not that messy either. It's amazing when you think of the stuff that you can build with these simple sticks e.g popsicle house, a popsicle floating raft, Christmas trees etc.

My favorites are encouraging the little ones to build shapes like triangles and squares. It's a matter of popsicle sticks and glue!

Collecting those popsicle sticks could take forever, just get them in bulk here.

I love these 4 popsicle stick craft ideas for kids. I chose them because they are simple to put together, and do not require many supplies.

1. Teach your little ones to make magic wands with popsicle sticks, some glitter, and star shapes.  You'll find the directions here.
2. Any kid will be proud when they create something as useful as a photo frame.  Encourage them to color their popsicle sticks, and also decorate with buttons, and any other feature that they love.  First Palette has a step by step tutorial on how to make photo frames using popsicle sticks.
3. I love sunflowers, especially the kind that won't die (lol). Making sunflowers out of popsicle sticks is the easiest craft, in my opinion. This teacher mama has the directions here.
4. As a homeschooling mom, I enjoy using all opportunities for learning.  Playing is the best form of learning after all. Have the kids building shapes with their popsicle sticks. I found this craft on Pinterest, however, the source somehow is no longer active. It is an easy craft though as it requires on popsicle sticks and glue.

Popsicle stick crafts for Christmas

The holiday season is upon us so there can be no ignoring popsicle stick crafts for Christmas.  Christmas crafts are one of the many activities that help the family to bond.  Making these with your kids can only benefit the family during this Christmas season.

1.  The Christmas tree ornament requires only the popsicle sticks, colorful buttons, and some paint as the main supplies. Ginger Snap Crafts has the step by step tutorial.

2.  Popsicle Stick Elf by I Heart Arts N Crafts

3.  Making snowflakes out of popsicle sticks is definitely creative.

4.  I love this ornament with a Nativity message written in.  I'd paint it though just so it can stand out.  I get the simplicity though, as it aligns perfectly with the Christian message of Christmas.
