Sewing Projects for Kids: Wooden Sewing Cards

Kids Stuff· Wood· Yarn Crafts

When I was younger, I remember being entertained for hours with sewing cards – simple chipboard shapes with punched holes and a length of string. I would practice sewing for hours! I thought it would be a fun activity for my kids too, and perfect for practicing hand/eye coordination. I looked and looked, and couldn’t find any sewing cards! So I did what any crafter would do – I made my own wooden sewing projects for kids!

They were ridiculously easy.

Sewing-projects-for-kids-cards-Crafts-UnleashedMine may even be a better option then the sewing cards I had growing up. These sewing projects for kids are made out of wood, so I am sure they will hold up better!

Supplies needed to make your own wood sewing projects for kids:supply-list

  • Simple Cut Out Wooden Shapes  (I used Flower, Apple, Horseshoe, Circle, Star, Heart)
  • Kids Plastic (Blunt) Sewing Needles
  • Yarn
  • Crop-A-Dile Punch Tool
  • Acrylic Craft Paint 
  • Paint Brushes in Assorted Sizes
  • Pencil

Sewing-projects-for-kids-cards-Crafts-Unleashed-1Using a pencil, mark your wooden shapes where you would like the holes to be  punched. Mark the holes in evenly spaced sections, like you would naturally sew.

Sewing-cards-CraftsUnleashedAfter you have marked all of your shapes, you can begin punching holes using your Crop-A-Dile. This tool is a must-have for any DIY/crafts lover! It punches through leather, metal, wood and chipboard with ease.

Sewing-cards-CraftsUnleashedWhen all of your holes are punched, you can paint your shapes.

Sewing-projects-for-kids-cards-Crafts-Unleashed-6I kept my painting very basic, but you can be as creative as you want!

Sewing-projects-for-kids-cards-Crafts-Unleashed-5Allow the paint on your wooden sewing projects for kids to completely dry.

Sewing-projects-for-kids-cards-Crafts-Unleashed-4When the sewing cards are dry, load up one of the plastic needles with approximately 18″ of yarn. Tie a knot in the top of the needle and you are ready to begin sewing!

Sewing-projects-for-kids-cards-Crafts-Unleashed-3Wooden sewing projects for kids – a fun and unique gift idea.

Sewing-projects-for-kids-cards-Crafts-Unleashed-2I purchased this tin to keep all of the sewing cards and needles contained.

I love having activities like this one to keep little hands busy.  I hope you do too!
