Another Year of Homeschool Crafts

July 30, 2017 By: amyswanderingcomment

I am great at finding seasonal craft projects to do during our homeschool year, but I am terrible at actually following through with them. Last year I had a light bulb moment and planned out a whole year of homeschool crafts plus a planner for the supply lists. It turned out to be my most popular post.

I had several requests to come up with a list for the 2017-18 school year, so here it is – Another Year of Homeschool Crafts! Don’t forget to grab your free craft planner at the end.

I have a few prerequisites for the crafts we do: I want inexpensive, easily-obtained supplies, and I prefer crafts that can be played with or will become part of our seasonal decor.

You are invited to join me on another year-long crafting adventure. I am assigning weeks, not dates, to each project so these plans will still be useful in future years. You can also still use the projects from last year because those aren’t dated either.

Another Year of Homeschool Crafts - 52 crafts & free planner

You will notice that there are only links being shared, not pictures. These bloggers worked hard to share these ideas and I want you to visit their sites for the instructions.

It is a good idea to keep basic supplies on hand throughout the year. Many of these can be picked up at the dollar store. If you are interested in saving money on color printing, I highly recommend the HP Instant Ink program.

Basic supplies: white paper, colored paper, cardstock, scissors, glue stick, school glue, glue gun, tape, stapler, hole punch, felt, markers, crayons, oil pastels, colored pencils, acrylic paints, watercolors, assorted paintbrushes, colored tissue paper, brown lunch bags, white coffee filters, pipe cleaners,  toilet paper tubes, paper egg cartons, paper plates, bubble wrap, string, yarn, wooden craft sticks, magazines

I suggest going through each craft at the beginning of the school year and filling out the supply lists in your planner. That way you will know in advance what you need each month. Feel free to change the colors or details to suit your decor. We will be making garlands out of a few of the crafts to hang over our windows.
