I am feeling patriotic today and decided to compile a list of 30 4th of July Crafts, Activities and Snacks for Kids. All of the crafts can be made with kids. Some require adult help, but I promise, they will just as fun for you as they are for your little ones. The yummy snacks are simple for kids to make, but will a hit with everyone in your household. I've organized the ideas into 4 areas: Crafts, Sensory, Paint and Snacks. Which will you try first?
