Rock Crafts for Kids
These fun rock crafts for kids will help them incorporate nature into their learning as they use their imagination and creative skills.
My son would ALWAYS collect rocks when we would go out on walks. He always had a bag of sometimes, sometimes a box, and would keep his eyes peeled for neat little rocks.
Crafts Made with Rocks
Ever since then, we’ve been hunting for different crafts we could make with the rocks. I didn’t want him to just throw them out, I wanted him to be able to save them in some way.
The crafts also helped us with our homeschool learning. He was using his imagination to create different things. Working with different materials and learning as he went.
