Kid Friendly Projects

I wrote this list when people were going to be stuck at home for Thanksgiving last year and needed stuff to do. Remember that? Yeah... I was tired of spending money in craft stores for kits that the kids blew threw and were only marginally ok. So this is for the most part stuff that you'd have at home.
