My favorite kid craft (today) is making those crazy crayons by melting leftover crayon bitties into mini-muffin tins.

Something like this http://www.flickr.com/photos/avlxyz/348228360/ only the one I first saw (and didn't save - doh!) was a lot simpler and very pretty. I'm looking forward to digging out all those bottle caps and making a colourful curtain when my daughter is a little bigger. I was thrilled to see the lid-man project on Whip Up this month, we'll be giving that a try too!

Besides just using a brush, we get out cookie cutters to stamp with, toy cars and marbles to roll in it and grab other things (toilet paper tubes or apples) to make fun shapes. We love paint.
