23 Back to School Crafts & Recipes

A plethora of crafts and recipes to get the kids excited about back to school!
My daughter starts school today! The summer break seemed to end so abruptly, and she needs a little convincing that school is cool.  After all, it’s a long day hitting the books with just a few short recesses to break it up.  I don’t remember having such long hours when I was a young girl in school!  Anyhow, it goes without saying that she comes home mentally exhausted, just needing a change of scenery and something new to set her mind to.  She loves crafting with me, so I searched Pinterest for some fun things that we can make, that will hopefully give her academic portion of the brain a rest as it activates the more “creative” side. I threw some cute adult crafts and yummy recipes in the mix as well!
These ideas are all so colorful and fun!  Some of them work as teacher gifts too!
