Crafts are a great way to broaden your kid’s imagination and enhance their creativity. The process of craftsmanship also imparts technical know-how to a child.
They learn how to properly use stationery tools like scissors, glues, etc. Imagination is a powerful tool that a child wields and craft is the best way to deploy and make use of it. And that holds true even for kids that turn into teenagers.
There can be tons of interesting crafts you can make with your teenage son/daughter. They will appreciate you trying to spend more time with them and they might end up getting hooked on artistic craftwork too.
