Whatever the party, learning to sew washcloth critters can be the activity. One critter or ornament is probably enough for one party or troop meeting. If one child gets through with the project early, let him or her make another of the same project.. Otherwise you will be torn in too many directions, especially if help is needed on a totally different project.
If possible, have a couple of helpers. If you see a couple of quick studies for threading the needle and tying a knot, enlist them to help the other children. If it is a very large group, then it is best to have several adults lending a helping hand. Sometimes, threading a needle, even if it has a wide-eye, can daunting for some children, just because it is something new to them. For more information, see: Party Tips.
Many of the projects can be glued with non-toxic, non-flammable fabric glue, and several do not require any sewing or gluing at all.
Happy Crafting!
