What you'll need:
- Orange and black construction paper
- Scissors
- Glue
- Crayons
- Cookie cutters
- Glitter glue (optional)
How to make it:
- Use cookie cutters to trace shapes from one color of the paper.
- Glue the shapes to the other color of paper.
- You can use glitter glue to outline the shapes or decorate with other supplies such as wiggle eyes, crayons, yarn, etc.
- You can also create a hanger by taping a piece of yarn to the back of the paper.
Tips:
- If after your kids have decorated their pictures and they are too heavy to hang, simply glue the entire creation to a piece of poster board.
- This is a very simple project for young children. Sit your toddler down and show them what each shape is. Add wiggle eyes and smiley faces to create a friendly and happy concept to what could potentially be frightening items.
- Orange and black are the traditional Halloween colors, however you can use whatever color paper you like. Try a white background and all different colored paper to create scenes, such as green for leaves and brown for pumpkin stems, black for cats and white for their whiskers, etc.
