4th of July Crafts for Kids with Special Needs

by Stephanie Arbetter

With those summer days inching along, it is easy to run out of ways to keep kids busy. If your children are tired of sidewalk chalk, then perhaps some arts and 4th of July crafts are just what they need!

The following two crafts are courtesy of the staff at Block Institute in Brooklyn, NY. Block Institute is an educational facility in New York City dedicated to providing services to children and adults with special needs ranging from global development delays to cerebral palsy and many other conditions.

The two crafts below were specifically thought of for children with special needs, but most any child will find these fun 4th of July crafts enjoyable!
