Crafting is a great thing for children. It allows them to playfully train their fine motor skills and let their creativity run wild. But sometimes, the little ones are a bit too boisterous. To ensure nothing gets spilled, I have a very practical household tip here:

Crafting with children without spills

What you’ll need:

  • Piece of foam or a larger sponge
  • Scissors/utility knife

Instructions:

To prevent spilling paint, water, or glue, cut a hole into a piece of foam where the containers fit snugly. It also works with a larger sponge. This way, any overflow is absorbed, and the container can no longer tip over.
