Pumkin Craft!


With Pumpkin time upon us I couldnt resist sharing this way cool craft that's fun for any age. My lead teacher taught this with our 2nd graders and I thought it looked so fun that I made one too! And when that wasn't enough, I also tried it with my Kinders in the afternoon. It is so fun!

Here's a link to copy into your browser for clear instructions. It talks about symetrical faces in general though-

So I posted this pic (above) of what it can look like as a pumpkin! You can do any shape for the whole pumpkin and the eyes, mouth and nose!

What a great way to teach the kids about colors and symmetry. If Picasso were still around, I'm sure he would enjoy this.
