Carefree Crafts is a monthly kid’s craft subscription club aimed at kids 3-10. Each month you’ll get a curated package of fun crafts that you and your kids can assemble. Each month is centered on a holiday or seasonal theme, and once completed; the crafts become toys or decorations for your kids. The monthly subscription is $17.95/month. You can also get crafts a la carte so if you only want a few, or want certain crafts you did not receive you can buy them.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Carefree Crafts came in a padded envelope via USPS. I got the package in the mail over a week ago and just have not had a chance to post it. It was addressed to S, so it made his day to get a package in the mail and not just an envelope.

First Look
When S and I opened the package he was so excited to see what crafts were included. Here are the crafts included for this month. There were 6 Thanksgiving related crafts enclosed in the Happy Thanksgiving! kit. It also gave a brief description of each craft and some fun Thanksgiving facts.
Information Sheet
Thankful Tree-I love the idea of this tree. At first I thought it was a family tree, and when I realized it was to put things you’re thankful for, I love it. I cannot wait for S to do this tree. I am curious to see what he is going to tell me when I ask him what he is thankful for.

Pilgrim Hat-I love the little turkey that goes on the hat. I think S will play along and wear this on Thanksgiving day.

Paper Turkey-This will look so cute hanging over our entertainment center and I cannot wait to make this with S.

Gourd Turkey-When I told S he gets to make a turkey out of a gourd he was ecstatic. Now if he will sit down long enough to make this that is the real question.

Update: S liked making this turkey gourd. I was a little bummed that it wasn’t a real gourd. It sure fooled me when it was in the package. The gourd turned out well and S was very proud of his turkey.

Pilgrim Photo Magnet-I cannot wait to add this to our fun magnets on the fridge.

Button Indian Corn-I love the idea of this. I think we will hang this on the backdoor. S loves buttons and says they look like money so he will have a great time gluing them on the corn.

Update: S had fun at the beginning putting down dots of glue and sticking buttons on them. After about ten buttons S was done and I had to finish it myself. It was really cute and I liked having it hang up for decoration.

I love all of the crafts we got this month and cannot wait to dive right into them. If I could I would make them all myself but I do have to let S make them. I will put pictures of the crafts when they are completed, along with how S liked them so check back to this posting to see the final products.
I was a little bummed when I saw the sneak preview on the internet of what we were getting this month. I was really looking forward to making the wreath. I thought it was adorable. Here were the other two crafts that some of the other kits may have contained.

Disclosure: All thoughts and opinions are all of mine and a little of S!
Update: We did not make the rest of the crafts from this month. S kind of lost interest in Thanksgiving decorations and was getting more excited about Christmas. I am going to save them for next Fall/Thanksgiving.
