Arts and crafts kits for kids

Arts and crafts give children a way to make something that did not exist before. A clay animal, a painted birdhouse or a bracelet for a friend is something a child can keep, give away and be proud of.

5 products

Our craft range includes a large art supply case with crayons, pencils, markers and paints, an air-dry clay kit that needs no oven, a bracelet loom kit, a watercolour postcard set and a wooden birdhouse to paint and assemble. Every kit lists its contents, the age range and the tools an adult may need to provide.

Craft play develops fine motor control, colour sense, patience and planning. It is also calm, which makes it useful for quiet afternoons, rainy days and long holidays.

We choose washable and water-based materials wherever possible, and we mark clearly which kits contain small beads or sharp tools. Cover the table, keep a cloth nearby and let the child lead the design.

Common questions

Are the paints and markers washable?

The paints and markers in our kits are water-based. They usually wash out of skin and most fabrics with soap and water, but we cannot promise that every fabric will come clean.

Does air-dry clay need an oven?

No. Air-dry clay hardens at room temperature. Small pieces dry in about 24 hours and thicker pieces may take up to 72 hours.

Which craft kit is good for a 4-year-old?

The art supply case and the air-dry clay kit both suit children from about 4 years with an adult nearby. Bead and loom kits are better from about 7 years.
