A project even the youngest of crafters can do, these paper pumpkins from DLTK Crafts fit in throughout the season, not just at Thanksgiving. Let them have fun, let them get messy, and do not expect perfection. When kids are finished making their stuffed pumpkins, use fishing line to hang them above your dinner table or carefully place them in a basket for an imperfectly casual centerpiece.
Preparation
Supplies:
pape
scissors
stapler
finger paint (or tempra paint and brush) in orange and green
cotton balls or shredded newspaper
Steps
Draw two pumpkins making them the same size.
Let children paint the templates with their fingers or with the brush and tempra paints. Allow to dry.
Cut out the pumpkins. (Adults may need to help with this step)
Staple all the way around the edge of the pumpkins leaving an opening at the top.
