Kids have fun with crafts.
Crafts are fun

Arncraft Project Library

Hang the Wheel of Better Behavior on your kitchen wall, and the atmosphere in your home will change overnight. It's guaranteed! Watch the dramatic changes as homework gets done, clothes get picked up, arguing stops...in short, the Wheel produces great kids and a stress free environment! The mere presence of the Wheel will have a marked effect on your kids. Chances are, you'll seldom even have to spin it!

Get the Wheel!

CD Angel

Materials

(old CD, button, sharp knife, glue gun, thread)

Score the CD with a sharp knife along the black lines in the drawing. Break along the score lines to make the wings.
Hot glue wings at an angle, behind the angel. They should be at 45 degrees to the body.
Hot glue the button on to form the head.

Optional

Drill hanger holes at shoulders as shown in the picture, or mount on a wood block base.
Think about what items you have that could be used to create the parts for your Angel. Maybe you have a gold disk that could be a halo.

Note for Parents:

Arncraft projects challenge you to create new items from recycled materials. Creative Kids at Home will try to provide safety warnings, but these projects are not intended for young children. Plan to have an adult supervising and helping with the project.

It is your responsibility to choose the activities that are safe in your home.
