Let's now give a craft idea also. It is a Cat envelope. It is probably one of the easiest crafts you could make with your child as it does not take more than 30 minutes. What you have to do is to get an envelope and just start drawing using crayons, pencils, markers or paints. You need to draw the cat's nose and also its whiskers. Do not draw all its features as you risk boring your child. Try to draw some features on a separate piece of paper and then cut them out. Those features could be ears for example. When you cut out the ears, just glue them to the head which you had already drawn on the envelope. Do not hesitate to add any features or colors so as to make the Cat envelope more attractive to your child because it is the most important you should aim at.
