[quote=Anonymous]For the 7 year old, one of those fake pot holder looms. I've not had a 5 year old in my house do one independently, but I have had them try. +1 rainbow loom, perler beads (maybe the Biggie beads for the 5 year old, depending on manual dexterity), Lite Brite, sticker mosaic (my kids especially love the kind you can hang on a window). Similar to the burlap suggestion above, I got a plastic canvas and some laces (yarn and plastic needles work too) and my kids "embroider" designs on it. If they can sew, Melissa and Doug has cool sewing kits using wood boards my 5 year old can do partially by herself. 8 year old can sew using the stuffed animal kits that are all over amazon, but needs some level of supervision.[/quote]
