Tie and dying is a fun activity that everyone loves! Explore the various things you can make by checking out these fun Tie Dye Projects for Kids and Teens!

When I was a kid, I used to see tourists sporting tie dye t shirts and I used to think about the person who must have painstakingly painted every stroke. It’s only when I grew up that I realized that tie dye is a LOT easier than I thought!

Did you know that every region has their own kind of tie and dye? In fact, I never realized that Japanese Shibori and Indian Bandhani or Ikat are actually versions of tie dye! Looks like this is quite an international art!

So let’s go ahead and celebrate this global phenomenon with something that screams summer- tie dye projects! There’s enough to choose from, and make great weekend projects for kids and teens – and even adults!
