13 New Amazon Crafts for At-Home Fun

These fun new activities make home the most fun place to be.

Winter is here and it can be a challenge to keep the kids entertained while being stuck indoors. If you have a few kids or a busy schedule you may not want to schlep the kids out of the house. There are also those lazy Sundays or the week your child is home sick with the flu.  That’s where Amazon comes in. As a self-appointed “Amazon Prime” mom, I love getting crafts, activities and projects delivered straight to my door! 

Here are some of my favorite picks!
