Roundup of Fall/Halloween kid-friendly crafts for kids
Posted by andrea tomkins in: Easy ways to make kids happy|File under crafty
Kids and crafts go together like peanut-butter and jam. There is a lot to love about crafting.
a) Kids are free to be creative and work without constraints
b) Kids love to make a mess
I have been browsing some websites for small crafty projects that caught my eye.
Here’s my list so far:
Fall crafts
- Apple dolls, remixed – I would like to make a bunch of these and display them outdoors, speared onto long sticks or the tines of a pitchfork in the style of beheaded apple people. I wonder, however, if someone is likely to stab themselves with a carving instrument. Hmm.
- Corn husk dolls
- Salt dough ghosts
- Rock bugs and other critters
- Leaf rubbings– I think we could turn these into placemats
- Oooh, Marla sent me this linked for a crocheted nature necklace
Halloween crafts
I’m still looking, but in the meantime, if you have any fall crafty ideas you’d like to add, add ’em!
