Fun Acorn Craft Ideas For Kids

Coloring

Yes this is obviously the most simple activity but there’s nothing wrong with that and this printable makes great acorn coloring page!

You could look at how to make brown paint out of different colours if you like or just grab some crayons, markers and coloring pencils and get stuck in coloring your acorn.

Rolling Acorn Painting

I did this fun acorn activity with my kiddos a few years ago and they really enjoyed it. My drawing was not exactly my best though so I’m happy to have this acorn stencil to use in future.

Collage

We made this super easy acorn craft using a collage and it’s a great way to use up any old craft supplies you have as well as being a good way to practice using scissors or support fine motor skills.

Why not try colored cardstock, yarn and even pieces of acorn pieces or leaves from oak trees themselves stuck onto your acorn shapes with glue or double sided tape.

Make Acorn Faces

This cute craft is a really fun way to encourage creativity, just turn the template upside down so that the acorn cap looks like a hat and draw on eyes, nose and a mouth to make your acorn into a little person.

You could laminate the template and use playdough to form the features too.

Sponge Painting

This is such a simple activity but especially for younger kids I think it’s the perfect fall craft as the painting allows you to do lots of color mixing.

Pour some red, yellow and green paints onto a plate or tray and then dip a sponge into them before using them to paint your acorn template.

See if your colors stay separate or will you start to get shades of orange and brown too!
