Fun for kids

I have a 2 yr old daughter and I love to do different art/craft projects with her, but I am starting to run out of ideas for fun and easy art projects for kids her age. Any ideas?

My toddler loves crafts as well.  I dont let him do glitter though even though he loves it.  Instead we do RAINBOW RICE.  Buy a box of cheap white rice and pour about an 1/8  cup into a sandwich bag and add a few drops of food coloring.  Your toddler can help shake the bag to mix the color.   Then when you have all the colors you want (in seperate bags lol) spread it all out on a baking sheet and bake at around 300 till it is dry.  Pour it all into one bag and TA DA RAINBOW RICE that he can sprinkle on glue or paint.  It is totally non toxic.  OR we also do peanut butter play dough.  They can make stuff and eat it.  Here is the recipe

1/3 cup peanut butter

1/4 cup of honey

1/2 cup of powdered milk. 

Just knead it all together. and then play.  I have a ton more things if you want I will PM them to you.
