The Best Craft Kits for Tweens from Sewing to Sculpting (2024)

Updated April 24, 2024 by Timothy Paradis

Stave off boredom in your tweens with craft kits! We know the tween ages are not an easy time. They’re wanting to discover independence and socialize with their friends, which can make it difficult to keep them happy at home and content with family time. Craft kits can offer some assistance on both fronts.

A fun surprise to find in the mail each month, art kits and fun craft projects are a great way to keep hands and minds occupied and engaged. In fact, arts & crafts provide an opportunity to support their independence or create some bonding time by crafting together. (Not to mention, they make a truly epic gift idea.)

The Cratejoy marketplace is chock-full of the best craft kits that are perfect for tweens. We put together a list of 15 of our favorite high-quality, hands-on monthly subscriptions that are packed with DIY crafts and craft supplies for tons of crafty fun!
