These creative button crafts for kids and teens are simple and beautiful. These are great for keeping boredom at bay anytime of year! #BoredomBusters
Buttons are a great craft supply for kids. Not only are they easy to come by, but they are incredible for working on fine motor skills. While looking for ideas using buttons for kids, I came across some fun projects that even I wanted to get in on.
The DIY thumbtacks and bookmarks are both something I can use at my desk. Those paperclip bookmarks would be perfect to use in my day planner. I'm always up for an opportunity when I can join in on the craft fun with my kiddos.
All of these kid crafts use supplies you probably already have in your arsenal. Pipe cleaners, felt, glue - nothing is too crazy that you wouldn't be able to easily get your hands on.
Also, buttons come in so many different colors, shapes, and designs, that your children will never tire of using them. There are fun button crafts for every season, holiday, and topic. This list of 18 Creative Button Art Projects are some of my favorite.
Have you ever made button crafts with your child? Which project on my list are you most looking forward to doing with your child?

Ohh so fun!! I just took a big box of buttons down from the attic, we should get using them.

There are so many learning opportunities with buttons, too. Sorting shapes and colors, simple addition and subtraction, all kinds of fun stuff! Thanks for stopping by!

The button tree is so cute!

That's a tricky one.... you might try having your older child use a baking sheet under the craft so that it helps keep things somewhat in one place. Another tip would be to add in a little math lesson! Count up how many buttons you have to start. Then count how many buttons were used and figure out if you have the right number of leftover buttons. If your count is off, you know you need to look for the missing ones! Good luck! 🙂
