You read that right- over 900 crafts that use construction paper! It’s crazy to think that there are that many, but construction paper itself has been around since the late 1800’s! It’s inexpensive (if you buy it online at Amazon [affiliate link] it’s about 3 cents per sheet) or you can find it at stores like Walmart by the crayons. Most dollar stores carry it too. Every house with children should have construction paper, as it provides hours of fun for very little expense!
