How to Make a Kid’s 2016 Bucket List Craft

By Raven W. Green

Another great New Year’s Craft for 2016!  Ya’ll know by now how much I love making easy, fun and memorable keepsakes for holidays.  They make for a wonderful mommy & me project plus great to look back on year after year.

Today, we are making a kid’s 2016 Bucket List Craft.  It is a great way to make plans for the year and have some fun time making something together.  I designed this for my daughter’s Girl Scout troop and we made them this past week. They had a great time!

Supplies:

• Felt (2 pieces)
• Yarn or string (enough to thread around edges)
• Hole Puncher (or craft knife)
• Scissors
• Glitter glue
• Label
• Marker or sharpie
  
  
• Ziploc bag
  
• Construction paper
• Pipe cleaners

 

Steps:

1. Gather supplies
2.  Cut two pieces of felt into the shape of a bucket or purse
3.  Use hole punchers or craft knife around 2 sides and bottom
4.  Line up holes in 2 pieces
5. Thread yard or string around edges of three sides to make bucket or purse
6.  Slide small plastic Ziploc bag into bucket or purse
7. Stick label onto front  and write child’s name
8. Twist 2 pipe cleaners together and attach an end to each side
9. Use glitter glue to write 2016 above name label
10. Cut 12 small squares out of construction paper and label January – December.
11. On other side of squares have child draw or write an activity they have never done but would like to that month
12.  Place squares into plastic bag
13. Hang bucket or purse on their door knob
14. Every month take out the month’s card and try to make their activity happen
15.  I made kits for the Girl Scout troop with all materials and instructions. They make great crafts for classes, troops or parties too!
16. Enjoy!

What are YOUR family traditions for New Year’s?

Live, Love & Learn,
