Easy ‘Stained Glass’ Kid’s Craft
This is such a fun idea that kids can do easily. We made them for grandparents as gifts, but now I want them to make me one too so I can have it in my window. All you need for this homemade kids craft is a frame (try thrift stores, they have tons!), some Wacky Glue (or other glue that is strong enough and dries clear) and some of these glass pebbles or whatever they are called.
I picked the colours at the craft store and then just dumped them out on the table after putting glue all over the glass and let the boys work away. This was a great craft for them! Both boys loved it so it works for kids age 3 to 5 for sure 
Enjoy the process and then gift or keep, but be sure to set it in a sunny window to get the full effect.

Yes, it is just fab for kids to do-it is one of those kids crafts that they can actually do and not get really frustrated. I love those!
