Pumpkin Projects
5 Fun Fall Crafts for Tots
By Kymberly Pratt
You'll need:
Orange paint
White construction paper
Fun scissors
Green and brown marker
Small paper plate
Paper towels
Here's what you do:
Let your child cut around the outside of the construction paper with fun cutting scissors. If they are not old enough, do this step for them. They can cut any shape!
Place a small amount of orange paint on a paper plate and a folded paper towel right beside it. Teach your child to place their thumb in the paint and then dab some paint off their finger on the paper towel. They will make thumbprints all over the paper. No amount is too many or too little. Pumpkin patches are all shapes and sizes!
After the paint from their thumbprints is dry, use the green and brown markers to draw stems and leaves connecting all the pumpkins. Again, nothing is perfect. Let them make their own pumpkin patch and they will be so proud of it!
You'll need:
Round glass vase or "fish bowl" shape
Orange, yellow and black paint
Paintbrushes of different sizes
Black paint pen
Floating candles
