A Crafty Mess Solution

Craft is a part of growing up, especially for toddlers and pre-schoolers. Paint, glitter and glue are all messy and a real pain to clean up, especially if you have to use your dining table or the kitchen bench as a craft table.

Make life easier by getting some cheap, plastic shower curtains ($2 shops are a good source of plastic shower curtains).  Put one over the table or benchtop before your little ones (or you) start crafting. Put another one on the floor to catch drips and spills. Clean-up is then as simple as folding the sides in and taking it outside to shake or hose down.
