I’ve been loving cupcake liner crafts lately. It is always so much fun to take everyday things and turn them into crafts. Today I’m sharing a red crab craft but we also made our favorite Ninjago characters. So fun!
What we really love doing is getting a few library books about a subject, reading about it and then making a craft. (affiliates included)

- Red cupcake liner
- Red construction paper
- Black construction paper
- Googley eyes
- Red marker
- Glue

Then you can draw small lines on top wit a red marker and attach googley eyes with glue.
We drew legs with a red marker and cut out pinchers from red construction paper.
Then cut out a little smiley mouth out of black construction paper.
See? Super easy.
Here are a few books kids will love about crabs:

And here are a few other adorable crab crafts:

Liz is a just a mom trying to keep it real about how little she sleeps, how often she gets puked on and how much she loves them. You can find her here every day writing about real-mom moments.
Nice and easy, I think even I could do that one:)
