Any great sources (websites or books) for craft activities to do with 2+ year olds, both when it's just us at home, and with other kids for playdates or playgroups?

Thanks!!!

Some of my favorites are FamilyFun, Though you might have to search a little for crafts for 2 year olds, I use this site mostly for my 6 yr.old. I also found a good playgroup web site, it has alot of info about playgroups and some cute craft ideas it is called onlineplaygroup. I also have this great book called Kid concoctions, it has cratfs and things you can make using stuff most people have in their home they have a web site too, it is called Kid concoctions.

I use Preschool by Stormie for my weekly lesson plans and ideas Kailey and I do. She has great theme ideas and lots of arts, crafts, and motor development ideas.

The only one I haven't used yet is mother-home, but I am about to check it out now

Good luck and have fun!

*ETA an 's' on mother or else it takes you to a Japanese site
