Pumpkin Painting

This is a classic, easy and fun.

 

 For easy clean up I covered the table with brown paper, put paint on paper plates and let the creativity happen,

 

This took 20/30 min, could take longer depending on how detailed your kiddo is.

 

Eli was so proud of his pumpkin.

Fall Bean Leafs

 

I love the fall & I love crafts.  Every day after school we are doing some kind of craft.

 

This was our bean leaf craft.  For this I had the leaf pre-cut out of card board, an assortment of beans, and glue.

 

Then the boys got creative.

Super simple and fun.

Cars Art

At Easter I always see the egg dying kits for 25 cents and think to my self "there has to be something you can do with these"  This year I picked up 5 and I am out to see what I can do with them.

 We opened them up and here is what was inside

 cars posters

 3D glasses, egg wraps, dye, egg holders

 I got out some computer paper, proped up the cars picure, then i cut the back off the egg wraps so they could be glued down easily.  I also provided glue and sizzors if they wished to cut any thing out.

The rest I left up to them to make thir own 3D art.  I would say this was 50 cents well spent.

Stain Glass

We did a super cute stain glass craft the first day in VBS.  Here is what you need to make this.

Tissue paper, all different colors

Cut your shape out of construstion paper.  We did a cross, but you could do a heart for valentines day, or a flag, or a pumpkin, turkey, snow man.  You name it this would be cute for any holiday.

 Open the paper and out line one side with glue

Place tissue paper on glued side

Glue oppiside side & close

Add string and decorate.

Beautiful!
