Sparkly Pumpkins!
Written By Savvy Auntie Staff Writers
Looks like the bare walls of your office or home entry-way need a little Halloween spirit, Auntie. Add some sparkle to the season!
Sparkly Pumpkins
You'll need:
Newspaper or something to cover the arts and crafts area.
Craft glue (We suggest you have more than one bottle, if possible. When it comes to glue, not all nieces and nephews are the best at being patient for their turn.)
Kid-safe scissors
Pencils for outlining
Orange construction paper
Sparkles, preferably in Halloween colors
Scotch tape for any cutting 'oops.'
Directions
On orange construction paper, help your nieces and nephews outline a large pumpkin. Then, help them outline a ghoulish face on the pumpkin. Apply a small amount of craft glue within the facial outlines. You may even want to consider using a small paint brush and let the children paint on the glue so it doesn't get too messy or sticky.
Sprinkle black or other color sparkles inside the eyes, nose, mouths, etc. Using the scissors, cut out the pumpkin shape! If there's a mistake, simply tape the pumpkin together on the back.
