Craft kits x ? (Monkwick CO2)
Hi my husband is a scout leader and he has set me a task to find a load of craft kits for all groups from squirrels aged 4-6 Beavers 6- 8 Cubs 8 -10 and scouts 10-14. There are roughly 20 children in each group and what they make we are hoping will sell at our Christmas fete ( i know too early for that word but have lots to sort). If anyone has anything that fits any of the age groups we would be extremely grateful
