Missouri Crafts for Kids

Sharing is caring!

Missouri is best known as the “Show Me State” and there’s a lot you can show your kids about this region when you’re studying United States geography! Missouri is part of the American Heartland, which means that it’s located in the center (or “heart”) of the country. As a result, Missouri is home to plenty of farmland, small towns, and animal life kids will love to learn about!

Round out your study of this Midwestern state with these Missouri crafts for kids! You can make these with the kids, but there are some that are so easy your kids can make them on their own!

For more about the American Midwest, read some of these Ohio books for kids with your children!
