The May kids craft ideas that you will find listed below, are absolutely perfect for the ages of toddler, all the way through elementary school age children. We have a little bit for everyone and every skill level to achieve. Even “not so crafty” adults can join in on the fun with these simple DIY ideas! Did I mention some of our tutorials even make for great keepsakes to display year after year in your home? Seriously – there are many good things you will find below!

So let’s get to it! As you scroll through our list below, you will find tons of great kids craft tutorials that range from using wood popsicle sticks to basic materials such as paper plates and tissue paper.  We even have several different free printables and templates for you to download and use as well. Not to mention, there are enough May craft ideas in this very roundup list for you to try a new one every day throughout the month so there is never a missed opportunity.
