FOR ALL AGES
At Kidadl we pride ourselves on offering families original ideas to make the most of time spent together at home or out and about, wherever you are in the world. We strive to recommend the very best things that are suggested by our community and are things we would do ourselves - our aim is to be the trusted friend to parents.
We try our very best, but cannot guarantee perfection. We will always aim to give you accurate information at the date of publication - however, information does change, so it’s important you do your own research, double-check and make the decision that is right for your family.
Kidadl provides inspiration to entertain and educate your children. We recognise that not all activities and ideas are appropriate and suitable for all children and families or in all circumstances. Our recommended activities are based on age but these are a guide. We recommend that these ideas are used as inspiration, that ideas are undertaken with appropriate adult supervision, and that each adult uses their own discretion and knowledge of their children to consider the safety and suitability.
Kidadl cannot accept liability for the execution of these ideas, and parental supervision is advised at all times, as safety is paramount. Anyone using the information provided by Kidadl does so at their own risk and we can not accept liability if things go wrong.
The day is celebrated all over the USA on the first Saturday of April.
It is celebrated by those who love handmade gifts and those who create handmade gifts. It can be celebrated by anyone, from those who enjoy baked goods and beauty products to those who practice artwork and woodcraft.
In 2018, it was registered as a national holiday in the USA.
Amy Bierstedt, the owner of From Scratch Farm, started National Handmade Day.
It was not long ago that we started celebrating National Handmade Day, but we have been using handmade items since we learned to sew.
Handmade products are pieces of art, and those who create these products are artists. These artists put a lot of effort into their creations, and to achieve good results, they have to practice for years. On National Handmade Day, let's do something to help them grow their businesses.
You can try to make something and gift it to someone special. You can also visit some local handmade artisan stores to shop in. Buy something for your parents and siblings, and maybe some toys for your children.
You can donate them to an orphanage or an old persons' home.
By celebrating National Handmade Day, you can appreciate and support the people who create handmade products. You can help them to sell more products and grow their businesses.
With people preferring the products of big brands and mass manufacturers, businesses for handmade products are on the decrease.
