This is a very simple, easy to make kids tote. I'm posting it because I need it for a different project, insha'Allah.. but I hope you can benefit from it as well. They'd work great as a grocery tote too.
It's kid friendly because of the fabric, size and the handle size. The square bottom makes it roomy enough to fit toys, books, crayons, and the height and width are perfect for standard-size colouring books. They'll be packed and ready for an adventure!
Making sure the print is in the right direction - cut out a 1.5" square at the bottom of each end.
Place right sides together, and sew along the sides, and the bottom.
Make sure the seam of the side lines up with the seam at the bottom.
Place the handles approx. 0.5" in from top edge (read handle placement) and stitch.
Optional: iron your seams all nice and flat.
Voila!.. you are done!
If anything needs to explained further, please let me know. It's sometimes hard to write a tutorial without making it an essay.

Wa'alaykum as-salaam wa Rahmatu Llahi wa Barakatuhu my dearest sisters,
Hajar!! Lovely to see you. Jazaki'Allahu khair for the wonderful cooment.. alhumduliLlah, I'm glad the tutorial is fine. If you end up making it, please let me know how it turns out!
Dear Mona, it really is very easy. I yes, I think you'd have lots of fun with a sewing machine.
Umm Abdullah, great to see you.. easy.. and kids love them! They end up more fascinated with the bag than the contents.

That's gorgeous masha'Allah sis! My 4 year old son would fall in love with that! He does like dragging a bag full of cars around the house! LOL

Errr... ok, how do you thread a sewing machine? LOL Yup, I am rubbish at sewing unfortunately and sewing a button on a shirt is about my limit. :/

Wa'alaykum as-salaam wa Rahmatu Llahi wa Barakatuhu my dearest sister,
Jazaki'Allahu khair for the sweet commentS.
It's so cute watching kids 'dragging' their toys around.. leaving a trail of evidence.
Haha... oh you must get a sewing machine! You'll have lots of fun. It's a lot easier than it looks. Even if you can pick up a second-hand one, I'm sure you'll have a blast! Umm Ibrahim, it'll even sew the button on! :D (and I'm always here to help)
Wa'alaykum as-salaam
