AUTUMN SCARECROW

This is a fun project to sit on your porch and welcome your guests for Thanksgiving!

SCARECROW:
Have your child pick a shirt, pants, socks and mittens.  Stuff with newspapers.
Cut down a paper bag to whatever size you want the scarecrows head to be.  Paint the head.  You can have your child cut eyes, nose and mouth out of construction paper and glue on the bag or have your child paint eyes, nose and mouth on the bag. 

Using safety pins, pin the shirt to the pants.  You can add the mittens and socks by using rubberbands.
 
Place a stick into the back of the shirt and down to the seat of the pants.  Place the head (bag) on the top of the stick. Glue gun the bottom of the head onto the stick.

Tie raffea around the neck, mittens and socks.

Place a hat on your scarecrow, place in a chair and name him/her!

WHAT A FUN DAY!
We were invited to present our love of art to a MOPS group and we had such a great time!  The ladies created children's art using their imagination and inner child!  Thank you for making our day!

A CHILDREN'S ART CENTER

What a fun day you and your little one will have creating a children's  art center! 
First, you will need something with drawers that can be used for art supplies.  You can find plastic carts with 3 or 4 drawers at Walmart or Target. 
Second, you find art supplies to fill the drawers!  Watercolor paints, paint brushes, construction paper, scissors, glue, fingerpaints, play dough and play dough cookie cutters, crayons, makers, etc...whatever is age appropriate, fun and interesting for your child!
Last, you now have an art center ready for those rainy spring and summer days or the wonderful days your child asks you to play with him or her! 
Have fun creating with art!

Fun with footprints...

With spring around the corner, we have found something fun to do with little feet.
