If you are not aware, sometimes it can be difficult to craft with a toddler. There's the impending mess, possible meltdowns and short attention spans to account for. But a wonderful thing that toddlers love and has zero mess are stickers! I wanted to make a fall wreath for Sydney's door so I pulled out a bunch of felt leaf stickers I had and cut a circle out of a heavy piece of scrapbook paper. I let her affix all of the stickers wherever she wanted. She kept saying, "I did it", every time she put one on. (I LOVE it when she says that, it's so cute!)
I then helped her glue on some shiny leaves and some random buttons we had on hand. For the finishing touch, I traced her hand on a piece of apple print scrapbook paper and cut it out to hang in the center. Simple, cute and easy! She loved doing it and now I have a keepsake for years to come. What fall crafts have you been doing with your kiddos?
that is so adorable! I can't wait for Eva to get crafty with me.
ReplyDeleteThis is a cute project! I should save it to pull out when my friends' kids come over!
