DIY Gifts for Kids

I love making gifts for my kids.

Not only is the gift special as my kids know I took time to make them something, but it also saves money. This is the 3rd year that I have found DIY gift ideas for you. In 2014, I shared these 20 gift ideas. In 2015, I shared 25 more gift ideas here. Over the years, I have shared some of the gifts below that we have made for our kids:

• DIY Pencil Pouch
• DIY Magnetic Paper Dolls
• DIY Journal
• DIY Post-it Pad Present
• DIY T-shirt Headbands
• DIY Sleeping Bag and Pillow for 18″ dolls
• DIY Play-Doh
• DIY Fabric Bin

This year, I have 30 DIY gifts for you!

I have tried to break the gift ideas down by age levels, but your 3 year old may enjoy some of the 4-8 year old gifts, and your 4 year old may enjoy some of the 0-3 year old gift. Your 7-8 year old may enjoy the gifts for ages 9 and up as well. Have fun!
