Make Your Own Paperdolls
Introduce your kid to the wonder and magic of paper dolls.
Kids will create characters, animals, humans or fantastical creatures and then design their clothing and accessories. It is optional to scan or photograph the creations so they can be reproduced and shared or sold, for the young art entrepreneurs.

When I'm not making art, find me listening to music on full blast in the kitchen, dancing and making food for my family:)
