23 Fun Outdoor Crafts for Kids
11. How to Make Popped Bubble Art
This is one of those crazy art projects I used to look at and think “no way,” but as an outdoor craft, the cleanup is minimal, making it not so crazy. Summer kids crafts like these can get rowdy pretty quickly. My little ones made these cute art projects for a while until they discovered they could also splash color on each other. Word for the wise, dress them in old clothes and roll with the punches. They did finish their art eventually, and we all enjoyed the project so much, we used it as one of the DIY party activities for a birthday party a couple weeks later.
12. DIY Backyard Horseshoe Game
This was one of the most perfect summer project ideas for my teens to make. These backyard project ideas make great DIY gifts for friends, and fun outdoor activities for kids and adults alike. Plus, the craft supplies list could not be shorter or more affordable. My teens love making these for their friends and personalizing them with their favorite colors.
13. DIY Ring Toss Game
Summer kids crafts can also transform into fun outdoor activities that kids can enjoy long after the DIY project is complete. This DIY ring toss game makes good use of the recycling pile and just that last little bit of paint you have from your latest DIY endeavors. My kids love playing with this craft both indoors and outdoors.
14. How to Make a Can Wind Chime
There aren’t many summer crafts preschool kids can make, so when I saw this DIY project I was smitten. We dug a couple of cans out of the recycling and got to painting. As far as outdoor kids crafts go, there are few that I’ve been able to keep completely outdoors. My little one loves to hear the clinking and clanking of his handiwork when it’s windy outside.
15. DIY Rainbow Sidewalk Chalk Paint
This outdoor craft has a strict outdoors policy attached to it. Since my kids drag this sidewalk chalk paint out at least three times a week, this summer kids craft pays for itself again and again. This chalk paint inspire cool kids art projects that don’t take up all the room on the fridge or don’t need to be taped up on the wall.
