Michaels Arts & Crafts Store in Tampa, FL 33611

Cruise down the aisles at Michaels Arts & Crafts Store and you can't help but be inspired by some of the projects that you can do at home with the kids. Sometimes it's a real lifesaver to stock up ahead of time on project materials for those long rainy afternoons.

Michaels' The Knack is a free club for families with kids ages five through 12, and provides project ideas and downloadable printables. Members receive coupons via email and can take part in frequent free in-store crafting events.

Party packages feature a choice of pre-selected projects, or you can "create your own package" with Michaels' party planners. You supply the cake and decorations; Michaels supplies the craft supplies and supervised instruction. Parents can also opt for a customized at-home party. Parties must be arranged at least 10 days in advance.

Summer Camps: Kids' Summer Craft Camps for children five to 12 years old generally take place in July and August. Contact your local store for exact dates and to register. Visit the website to find a location near you.
