15. Beach Jar – Fun and Easy Summer Craft
My son was invited to my friend’s daughter’s beach themed 5th birthday party this weekend. They played some ball games in the yard, made a summer Beach Jar craft , ate some cake and had a lot of fun overall. The “loot bag” was beach towels – different prints for boys and girls of course. As a parent I love when kids come home with practical and useful party favours like this.
