Autumn Pine Bouquet
Pine cones found in the yard or purchased at the craft store make beautiful “flowers”! To make a bouquet like this one by @misssanateaches paint the pine cones with acrylic paint, then drill a hole in the bottom of each pine cone, and use a wood skewer or wire stem for the flower stems. Finish with a bow, or put them in a pretty vase.
Watercolor Monsters
These painted monsters by @hellokristendickson are simply adorable! Here’s how to make them yourself. Add a dollop of watercolor paint on a piece of paper, then (this is the fun part) use a straw to blow air at the liquid. Blowing will spread out the color into an abstract monster shape. Bring the little guys to life with googly eyes.
Creepy Cottage Pumpkin
This miniature pumpkin cottage can be used year after year because it’s made using a foam pumpkin. Cut a large hole in the foam pumpkin, and paint the interior to create a dark sky background. Then, arrange a miniature Halloween scene inside. For this example we used a ceramic cottage, a bench and faux moss.
Acorn Faces
Autumn foliage provides all sorts of craft opportunities. Have your kids collect acorns on a nature walk (or you can buy faux acorns ), and then paint cute faces on them as shown here by @darlingmama_. Finding the acorns is half the fun! Display the acorn cuties in a jar when you’re finished.
Pleated Paper Bat
This cute little bat by @lulu__make is a great fall craft that your child can easily make without many supplies or prep work. Fold cardstock paper in pleats to make the wings, then use a cardboard circle for the face. Felt, foam or paper can be used for the ears, teeth and nose. Let your child get creative with the colors and facial expressions.
Faux Leaf Turkey Craft
Here’s how to make this playful turkey craft by @katiesproul. Cut three different size cardboard circles, then have your little one color in the smallest circle using a brown marker or crayon. Glue layers of leaves all over the largest circle to create the tail. Attach all the circles together and add some googly eyes, feet and a beak.

Fall Mushroom
Katrina and Stephanie of Crafty Moms, who developed this mushroom craft, use their surroundings (and upcycling items in their homes) to inspire their projects. This unique craft, which is geared towards kids age 2 to 6, is also a fun sensory activity.
