Arts & Crafts

Holidays as a kid means seasonal themed arts and crafts! Get creative with the family for Halloween with these few craft ideas.

Pumpkin Carving and Decorating

When you think of Halloween, pumpkins are one of the first things that comes to mind along with costumes and Halloween candy. Decorating and carving pumpkins is a traditional Halloween activity and is a must-do for families and kids. Since carving pumpkins can be difficult for children, you can stick with simple face designs or just decorate the outside of the pumpkin. You can buy paint and art supplies for your kids to paint and glue on decorations as they like! But make sure to clean off the pumpkin first and lay out a tarp or other items to keep the paint from ruining your floors!

There are not only coloring pages, but also word searches, mazes, puzzles, and a lot more. Have your children color a page to decorate the fridge with!
