Kid's Craft

Woven Newspaper Sitting Mat

Making the newspaper sitting mat was a camping craft I learned eons ago. This easy craft has come in handy hundreds of times, particularly on frosty mornings when the dew is thick on the picnic table's bench. It is easy and quick to make so you can have a mat to sit on at the picnic table, by the campfire, or any place where you want to have a little cushion under your bum.
