9) Circut Craft
A circuit is a cutting machine that cuts out fun paper and vinyl designs. Sounds cool, right?
An adult is required when utilizing a circuit. Still, it can be an enjoyable experience for children to observe the creative process of creating/printing out the design on a circuit.
Design Bundles is one of my favorite places to discover fun SVG files to include in some papercraft projects. Some fun ones are the gnome svg and the cloud svg. The best part about them is that these collections include different bundles of SVG files tailor to other seasons, holidays, and events. For example, garden gnomes and cute sleeping clouds are SVG bundles that can be cut out or placed on an object.
