Thanksgiving Corn Craft

My 3, 5 and 7 year old each did an ear of corn and it turned into a very pretty door hanging.



You will need: construction paper, paper bag, scissors, glue stick and ribbon.










Cut out an ear of corn and corn niblets from the construction paper.

And the top of the corn from the paper bag. And crinkle it up a little.












Glue on the corn niblets.











Glue on the paper bag piece to the back of the ear of corn.










Put all the corn together and tie them with a ribbon.

cute, cute!

I'm thinking that my two-year-old could participate in this one. I may try to put some Elmer's glue in a little cup and let her "paint" the glue on with a q-tip. I think that she would really like it.

Thanks for the tip!

I think i will make this a little more Montessori friendly by having my DS cut paper strips to make the corn before gluing them on! Thanks for the idea!

Super Easy Volcanos

Image
I love this project it is so easy and only takes a short amount of prep time. Cheyanne loves making the volcano erupt. We used: plastic plate, plastic cup, aluminium foil, tape, vinegar, baking soda and red food coloring. Tape the bottom of the cup to the center of the plate. Cover with aluminium foil. Cut a hole in the center of the foil and push the edges down in the cup. Spoon in some baking soda. Pour in the vinegar. Watch it erupt.

Fall Toilet Paper Roll Tree

Image
This is a great craft for even young children. I think it turned out so cute. You will need: Red, yellow and orange paint, scissors, toilet paper roll, and green construction paper (or card stock). Cut the green paper into the shape of the tree top. Use fingerprints dipped in the paint as Fall leaves. Cut 2 slits down, across from each other on the toilet paper roll. Slide tree top into those slits.

Father's Day Card

If you Dad is into fishing I think this would be a great Father's Day Card for the kids to make. We used: Fish Coloring Page , tissue paper or crepe paper (cut up into sqares), glue, construction paper, wiggly eye, and a marker. Glue on pieces of the tissue paper and eye to the coloring page. Cut out the fish pattern. Glue on to folded construction paper. Write," Fishing You a Happy Father's Day !!!!" Cheyanne made one for her daddy and one for God.
