Halloween Monsters!!

SUPPLIES:
-Cardstock Paper (any color will work but we used black)
-Paint (any colors)
-Paint Brush
-Googly Eyes
-Glue
-Black Marker


DIRECTIONS:

1. Paint the palm of your toddlers hand or bottom of their foot and then let them press it to the Cardstock paper. (Do this as many times to get the number of monsters you want).

2. Let Dry (if you use acrilic paint like we did it dries really fast and it comes off of skin super fast too!) After it is dried let your toddler add the eyes (help them with the glue if needed).

3. I helped him add some mouths to the monsters, but older kids would be able to do that themselves!

Painting Pumpkins

SUPPLIES:
-Pumpkins
-Paint (we used 6 different colors)
-Something to elevate pumpkin so it doesn't sit in wet paint (we used plastic bowls)


DIRECTIONS:

1. Place plastic bowls (or whatever you are using) in a plastic bag then place pumpkin on top.

2. Squeeze paint onto pumpkin and let it drip down.

3. Keep adding paint until you are happy with your design.

*They take a while to dry especially if you use a lot of paint*

Fall Tree

SUPPLIES:
-Paint (brown, red, yellow, orange)
-Cardstock Paper
-Brown Crayon

DIRECTIONS:

3. Have your toddler use the pom pom balls to make "leaves" on the tree!

Painting With Cars

Supplies:

• canvas
• acrylic paint in various colors
• toy cars
• paint brush

Directions:

1. We started with a plain white canvas and I painted the entire thing before we began the project. I let it dry for about an hour/hour and a half(it dries really fast).
 
2. Squirt some paint on the canvas and let your toddler drive his cars over the paint.

The Finished Project:
 

Elijah had a blast doing these so we will DEFINITELY be doing it again!!!

*The paint washed off the wheels of the cars VERY easily!*
