Are you looking for an easy pumpkin craft for the wee ones to do for Halloween? I put together a very easy pumpkin craft today, and it kept the kids occupied and entertained while I finished up some work this afternoon. I love projects that can be worked on independently, it makes the children so proud to work on projects on their own. Plus this project yields cute decorations for the Halloween holiday!
Easy Pumpkin Craft ::
What you need: Orange, Black & Green paper, scissors (or paper punches) and glue sticks
The Prep Work: I cut the orange paper into pumpkin shapes and made a variety of black shapes to be used for the faces and green squares for the stems. I was preparing this for young ones (Henry is 2), but you could adapt this for older kids by letting them cut out the black shapes themselves. I think you could get some really interesting faces if the older kids cut out their own shapes.
Next step: Glue black pieces onto the pumpkin “face” and add the green stem.
