Children possess endless amounts of imagination and as parents, it is our job to cultivate that in the best ways possible. Sometimes that means getting them involved in drama classes and sometimes it means taking on a few awesome crafting projects. If you have a little one who is obsessed with princesses, try making a few of these glamorous DIY’s for a little extra fun.
