Paper Crafting World Shows What You Can Do With Your Kids During Summer Vacation

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) June 14, 2011 -- June 14, 2011 - - “School’s out!” Students long to hear those words as much as many parents dread them. The early days of summer seem like fun for everyone. A chance for parents and children to spend some quality time together. Then, the novelty wears off, boredom sets in, kids don’t know what to do with themselves… and parents don’t know what to do with them!

And so, the battle begins. The children want to spend their time under a veil of technology…TV, video games, computers and cell phones. Parents, on the other hand, would like to see their kids engaging in something a little more stimulating…but what?

One local business owner has the solution: Crafting!

Andrea Walford, a Cambridge-based paper crafts consultant and owner of Paper Crafting World, works with groups and individuals who would like to create their own paper masterpieces. She believes these projects present parents with a more productive alternative to the “usual” activities kids gravitate toward when left on their own during the summer months.

Some parents may associate paper crafting with the old glue, glitter and cotton ball-laden project from grade school, but today’s paper crafters take it to the next level… and beyond! Children (and parents) can craft cards, gifts and scrapbook pages, just to name a few items. Making it a family event means it’s not only a way to keep the kids busy… but for everyone to spend time together, as well. And, you may spark an interest in a family activity that extends beyond the summer.

If you would like to plan summer paper crafting projects for your children, but don’t know where to start, visit Andrea’s website, http://www.papercraftersworld.com, for some ideas. Also, feel free to contact Andrea at (519) 620-8810 or andrea@papercraftersworld.com for some crafting ideas for younger kids or family projects.

Andrea is also available for media interviews to discuss the importance of keeping children involved in thought-provoking activities during the summer months. Please use the contact information to schedule an interview.
