Where do you discover new kid-friendly crafts?
i feel so lucky to have the resources, ideas, tips, and inspiration of (what seems like) the whole world at my fingertips via the internet! i follow lots of crafty blogs, and pinterest is always good for some new ideas.
What's one creative product you would recommend to all moms?
i don't think it gets any better than a crayon and construction paper or a bin of dress-up clothes to encourage creative play.
How do you encourage your child to explore their creativity?
i think that asking lots of open-ended questions and providing age-appropriate crafting materials are the most important things. my girls are most open to creativity when they have a range to work within, but are allowed to explore that specific idea or medium without preconceptions.
