CRAFTY MOM

You’ve been known to make origami animals out of restaurant napkins in a pinch, but even the most artsy mom can use some help.

Which is why we flipped for the ingenious Vancouver-based Craft Caravan that mails your kids new creative projects every month.

April’s project includes planting nasturtium seeds in a decorated box and painting flowers with paper doilies.

Supplies (they even included the dirt) are non-toxic and often recycled, and everything comes in a shiny green envelope that even Dad could tackle with the kids pre-dinner while you pour yourself a glass of wine.

Now that’s crafty.

$9.99 per month. For more info, visit www.craftcaravan.com
