Summertime is fabulous for being outdoors and visiting the beach, but sometimes you need a break from the hot weather and my list of July crafts for kids lets you do just that!
July is one of the busiest months for International events, and of course we have Independence Day! I love July 4th because it also happens to be my daughter’s Birthday!
Apart from Patriotic crafts for kids there are lots more things happening like International Tiger Day, Teddy Bear Picnic Day, National Day of the Cowboy and Cow Appreciation Day to name a few!
I have included lots of different easy crafts for kids featuring these themed days! I sure hope you get a chance to do most of them, if not in July sometime during Summer vacation!

I made my confetti launchers in neutral colors but this one is just perfect in Patriotic colors.
It is so simple and only requires a few materials including toilet paper rolls, colored craft paper, confetti, stickers and pipe cleaners!
Kids will love popping these and letting the confetti out. You could even use these for a Birthday party.
