CONTENT:
Kids-R-Crafty offers a variety of printable activities and work sheets.

AESTHETICS:
The site is easy to read. Banner ads on the top of each page are somewhat
distracting.
ORGANIZATION:
The welcome page of Kids-R-Crafty has a side navigation area that
links to each type of activity in English and French. Each activity
page features buttons for easy access to other areas.
REVIEW:
Kids-R-Crafty provides parents and teachers of young children with
a collection of printable work sheets and activity ideas for kids.
Work sheets include mazes, dot-to-dots, handwriting exercises, and
coloring sheets. The Activity
section features Code Challenges (number codes), word puzzles, and
an interesting page called Potions
that offers fun and slimy (and messy, no doubt) recipes inspired by
the Harry Potter craze. The page lists a number of "must have"
ingredients for children to create their own magic potions. Additional
resources on these pages include alphabet work sheets and pictures,
vocabulary pages with pictures and words in both English and French,
and holiday theme work sheets. Actual craft ideas on the site are
limited, but the other activities available provide numerous resources
for use with young children.
