We love to create Dollar Tree Craft Stick crafts with the kiddos, and they do too! They are quick and easy to make in a group at school, with grandparents as a keepsake, or some creative one-on-one time with parents.
Popsicle sticks are available to buy at Dollar Tree in assorted sizes and colors. Our projects use regular craft sticks, jumbo craft sticks, and already colored rainbow craft sticks.
Wooden craft sticks are inexpensive, versatile, and durable for crafting with the kids. We always keep a variety on hand to use when we are feeling crafty.
Are you looking for a quick project with the kids in just a few minutes or enough crafts to fill an afternoon? Well, we’ve got you covered with a ton of fun popsicle stick crafts!
