I'm happy to be featuring another fabulous must-have kid craft supply - craft foam! We're spotlighting all the amazing ways you can craft with this material, perfect for so many kids crafts. You've seen it all over the craft isles in large sheets, small sheets, and small shapes. There are different shapes and symbols or all sorts of craft foam letters too. It comes in all sorts of colors and some sheets come with sticky backs for fun crafts!

 

Craft foam is a fun material to work with, similar to paper, but more firm and sturdy. It's also very bendable and easy to manipulate. You can cut, glue, fold, bend, and staple this cool craft foam. It's great to use with little ones as it's soft and easy to manipulate.
