When I was a kid and it was summertime, I think I drove my parents pretty crazy. They worked during the day and came home at night to me wanting to do something. Then I discovered crafting and I started to enjoy my summers even more.
It's always fun to spend some family time in one fun activity, isn't it? The best part about the summer is that crafts and fun can oftentimes happen outside or be part of a larger family vacation, like if you make a refrigerator box castle or decorate T-shirts to wear together. Here's five fun summer crafts that you'll enjoy doing with the whole family.

Refrigerator Box Playhouse
What's more fun than getting a big old refrigerator box and building a house out of it? I remember spending countless hours doing just that, decorating it as I see fit.

On a warm day out, head to your local park with the kids and spend the day having fun, gatherings things, before heading back home and spending an evening crafting.

Paper Bag Hand Puppet
I always played with sock puppets as a kid but I think it's even more fun (and less sock-wasteful!) to make them out of paper bags, then let kids put on a full theatrical show.
