Arts and crafts for children and raise money for your favourite charity 
(23/03/2009)
If you’re looking for something to keep the kids occupied during the long school holidays or even a few hours at the weekend, but want to raise money for your school or favourite charity too, Yellow Moon could be the answer you are looking for.
With a website and catalogue full of thousands of affordable arts, crafts and educational play ideas to challenge and amuse children for hours, Yellow Moon donates between 5 and 25% of every purchase made to a charity, school or group of your choice. Even if you aren’t affiliated to a charity or school, Yellow Moon has three designated charities which you can choose to help.
Many parents say that when they ask children if they want to participate in arts and crafts, they generally say: “No.” However, ask them if they would like to Design-a-Russian Doll Set creating individual characters for five wooden dolls with acrylic paint or Deco pens; or make a Scratch Art Snowstorm where they scratch their own design, add water and glitter to create their very own snowstorm – and in no time at all they will be rushing to join in. With both of these kits, like the majority in the catalogue, costing under £5, you can afford to have plenty of activities in the cupboard to stave off those boring afternoons.
Mrs Mardenborough from Cornwall said: “I love the Yellow Moon catalogue as it sells things I can’t find in the shops – with the added bonus that my children’s school benefits from it too – a great idea.”
Yellow Moon has raised over £2.8 million for schools and groups since it launched in 2001.
