Art & Craft
Some craft-a-day keeps the screens away!
Well, maybe not entirely, but art and craft toys are a great way to get off those damn screens. Sit with your kids and get involved … while allowing them to make their own ‘survivable’ mistakes. Set junior up at the bench while you're cooking dinner, or begin a project and spend a little time each weekend on it together.
Geppetto's Workshop keeps a great range of kits and projects to get into some craft. This ranges from basic markers, up to all-in-one sets. If you visit our store, we can wrap your gifts on the spot. If you're buying online in Australia, leave us a comment in your cart (or an email) and we'll wrap it before we post!
We make sure our art and craft supplies are age appropriate, so be guided by the age ratings and resist the temptation to buy something advanced for your 'super talented' grandson etc.. It's best to match the dexterity and detail of the project with the skills of the little crafter!
What is the best art and craft toy for kids?
The answer really depends on your child, so consider these factors before you buy art & craft toys online in Australia.
Scale : Decide if you want a short project to keep little fingers busy while at the café, or whether you’d like a weekend project suitable for a short holiday or a trip. Some projects can take weeks, so choosing carefully and setting expectations is really helpful when gifting an art and craft toy.
Patience : It’s easy for kids to become distracted, and the skill of focus and patience can develop over time. Choose a product that will provide manageable steps that might be done one sitting at a time.
Skill : It’s also easy for kids to feel overwhelmed. While we might believe our child is the next Einstein or DaVinci, be realistic and give them a good chance to succeed. No one wins when we overestimate our child’s capabilities and lead them to failure … it can cause a reluctance to take risks and try again.
