Arty Kitchen towel
An easy, mess free and inexpensive craft that gets kids being creative. Display their art on the wall, or fridge, or use it to make inexpensive personalized cards or bookmarks.
What you need:
- Felt tip/marker pens
- A piece of kitchen paper towel with an embossed design on it
- A piece of card, paper or newspaper (to protect your work surface)
