It’s almost watermelon season and I’m SUPER excited to share our Button Watermelon Kid Craft idea w/free printable with you all today!

This summer themed kid craft idea is not only super simple but really inexpensive and fun for all ages. All you need to do is download the free printable file below, print it, grab some green/black buttons and get straight to work with your child. It’s super easy, not messy and absolutely perfect for some indoor “beat the heat” fun. I’ve set up the basic frame work – it’s your job to get the creative juices flowing!

So what are you waiting for? Dump those simple craft supplies on the table and let the kids get to work now! Happy crafting my friends!

Supplies:

* Free Printable {Download HERE}
* White Cardstock/Color Printer
* Green/Black Buttons
* School Glue

Directions:

* First download and print the watermelon template printable on white cardstock.
* Now grab your school glue and put a line of glue along the green rim of the watermelon. Have children place their green buttons on top of the glue, until the rim is completely covered.
* Now grab the black buttons {aka – seeds} and have children glue them in the center where the pink/red of the watermelon is.
* Once done, set it aside to let it dry completely before displaying proudly!
