Little kids have a great time during Halloween but sometimes some of the crafts that are done during this time are too difficult for them. This is the perfect craft for those little ones that want to get involved with doing crafts and decorating for the Halloween season. There is some adult help needed but for the most part everything can be done by the little ones.
Materials Needed:
- Mini paper plate
- Orange acrylic craft paint
- Yellow craft foam
- Green craft foam
- Brown craft foam
- Scissors
- Glue
Instructions:
- Place the paper plate upside down on your work surface and paint it orange. Set aside to dry and repeat with a second coat if needed.
- Cut out facial shapes (triangles for eyes and a mouth with a few missing teeth) and glue to the plate.
- Use scissors to trim the plate into a pumpkin-like shape. Do this by cutting a dip in the top where the stem would be and trim the bottom to flatten it a bit.
- Cut two simple oval-shaped leaves from green craft foam and glue to back of the plate at the top of the pumpkin.
- Cut a simple rectangular stem from brown craft foam and glue to the back of the plate, between the leaves.
