They have been super sweet and given me free reign to buy what I need and they reimburse my receipts.
Here are the basics:
Paper!
- Card Stock
- This stuff always seems to be on sale at Jo-Ann Fabrics. It's nice because it's more durable than construction paper.
- You'll find it in the scrap booking aisle.
- Last time we went, I got 5 packs for card stock for $10!!!!!! All different colors.
- Patterned paper
- The bigger stack was on sale for $10 also (half priced)- if it's not on sale, wait until it is or go on Jo-Ann Fabric's website. They have a 50% off coupon every month for one full priced item.
- Construction paper
- Kids craft aisle
- Crayola markers
- Crayons (for little ones- the thick ones)
- A pencil and pencil sharpner
- A felt tip pen & medium sharpie
- Glue stick
- Scissors
- String (yarn or string or embroidery thread- whatever)
- Tape
- Kids LOVE tape
- I like to have a secret stash of nice tape (like Scotch tape) and then a kid's stash (I got 3 rolls of tape for a dollar at Daiso)
Extras (if you're feeling adventurous):
- A hot glue gun
- Pom poms
- Glitter glue (Not glitter- contain that stuff in some glue or you'll lose your mind-for real)
- Glue dots (if you really hate messes)
- Tempera paint and brushes
- Elmers Glue, dixie cups, and a paint brush
- Color pencils
- Stickers
- Painters tape
Recycle!!! (What to save)
- Baby food jars (snow globes)
- Egg cartons (sorting games)
- Card board boxes (I built an play mailbox once that was dope!)
- Paper tubes (marble tracks)
- Plastic take-out containers (water toys)
