Any suggestions on something that would be good for a boy of his age?

He is making blankets for the girls’ Barbies. They are just the right size for his attention span and need to ‘finish’ something in a short amount of time.

My 6yo loves working with pastels and watercolor pencils in his sketchpad, and I’m looking forward to getting him some air-dry clay soon as well.

Someone else on the forum suggested it, but I can’t remember who. Try some of the paracord projects. 🙂We also use this one, but it’s more girly. You never know what a child may be interested in. 🙂 http://www.dmc-usa.com November 20, 2014 at 8:00 pm 5heartsathomeParticipanthttp://kleas.typepad.com/kleas/2012/07/doll-making-camp.htmlJust thought about this, too. We made yarn dolls today. You could do boy colored yarns and then add buttons/notions to make them police officers, superheroes, constructions workers, family memers, etc.. You could have a ton of fun and creativity. 🙂 November 22, 2014 at 12:26 pm Katrina in AKParticipantA potholder loom is a great gift. December 2, 2015 at 4:07 pm RoseParticipantI know this was a year ago but thank you for this! I found a ton of stuff on the frugal boys site for my 6 year old to keep him busy but not with things that we’d soon call trash lol.

He loves making them, and they are functional.Viewing 9 posts - 1 through 9 (of 9 total)The topic ‘art or craft kit ideas for 6 YO boy?’ is closed to new replies.
