After sharing our new pumpkin template with you last week I really wanted to share an activity that shows it in use and this foil painted pumpkin craft does the job perfectly.
I’ve made this craft two ways so that you can use it as an easy Halloween craft or if you’d prefer not to make a Jack O’Lantern I’ve done it just as a normal pumpkin so you can make this as an autumn, harvest or Thanksgiving craft. Go with whichever one your kids prefer!

If you’re looking for some What The Ladybird Heard at the Seaside activities then you’re in the right place!
We love this gorgeous book that’s been illustrated by Lydia Monks and it’s a great way to encourage kids to try out some fun arts and crafts as well as sensory play.

This fall tree craft with real leaves is perfect for making after you’ve been pout for a walk with your child, I think all of us have come home with a pocket full of the most pretty leaves at some point.
I nearly didn’t share this activity because I thought that maybe it might be too simple? But then I remembered that when you have kids there’s often no such thing as too easy, we love those easy to prepare fun activities and this fall tree fits the bill.

Do you ever feel like doing some crafts with the kids but you just can’t face the thought of them covering your house in paint? Me too and that’s exactly why I cam up with this mess free autumn tree craft. I try to be pretty chill about these things but after that time I let my two year old go wild with the black paint and then remembered we’d had a new bathroom fitted that week? Well, I’m a little bit more wary now! This autumn tree craft is perfect for younger kids or when you want to do something a little less messy with your children.

Are you ready for Halloween? We’re certainly getting ready here! This paint splat spider craft is perfect for preschoolers and younger kids as the technique itself is a nice sensory way of painting without (hopefully!) getting too messy and you can also use this as a way to practice scissor skills.
