Today we hoping to encourage YOU to make an “out of this world” craft idea and learning adventure, with the help of Glued To My Crafts!

Our latest and greatest letter A is for “alien” outer space kid craft tutorial is the PERFECT activity to reinforce that statement.

Like always, our craft tutorial is SUPER simple for kids {and adults} of all ages to pull together within a matter of minutes.

Like I mentioned above, this craft stick alien friend kid craft idea is a great way to “teach” the letter A in your classroom, as well as in-cooperating it into your outer space studies. Although I know it’s fun for the younger children, I bet the older ones would enjoy it as well! On that note, I hope you are inspired to recreate it right along side them, as well today!

On that note, everything you need to know can be found below, so let’s grab our craft supplies and reach for the stars! 3, 2, 1 BLAST OFF! Happy crafting my friends!!
