P and I had a brief discussion on what craft is compared to art. I told him that what I mean when I say it for him, it is that with craft, there is a specific end goal/look that is trying to be achieved. Art is more about whatever the person doing it wants to do. It is a process more than a goal.
And so, out came construction paper, scissors, glue, crayons, paper plates, previously-cut colored transparent plastic shapes, scrapbooking edging scissors, paper crimpers, and sequins. Let the art begin! Favorite tools for each child: P loved the edgers, glue and sequins; K loved learning to use the crimpers, and learning about scissor safety.
