15 DIY Sun-catchers Kids can make

Suncatchers are a pretty way to create art! The sun will literally, shine through them, and sparkles of color will fill the room. As per Wikipedia, “A suncatcher is like the optical equivalent of a wind chime.”

Some of the suncatcher crafts that we have included here are aimed at small children, but we have also found some harder more grownup ones for older kids and adults. Looking for suncatcher kits? Check these out on Amazon.

Perfect for summertime activities, or a rainy day craft to bring back the sunshine.
