Klutz kits that travel well
The best travel craft fits in a seat pocket and survives a dropped tray.
In a car seat or on a plane
Cat’s Cradle is one loop of string. Friendship Bracelets clips the threads to its own cover, so nothing rolls away. Super Cute Embroidery lives in a hoop. All three can be picked up and put down between stops.
At a table somewhere else
Air-Dry Clay Animal Party needs no oven, which matters in a rental kitchen. Pastel Studio and Watercolor Dreams need a flat surface and, for the second, a cup of water. Super Mini Market is all punch-outs and tape.
Leave these at home
Anything with a baking step, anything with a motor, and the LEGO kits with long ball runs. They are wonderful on a kitchen table and miserable in row 23.
One packing tip
Take the materials out of the box and put them in a zip bag with the book. The box is half air.
