12 Fall Kids’ Crafts

by Myra Hope

One of my favorite things to do is crafting and creating with Ridley, our two year old. He loves to watercolor paint and finger paint as well as to play with pipe cleaners. Oh, and he loves cutting paper with scissors.  Since I’ve been bitten by the “Fall-lovin’ bug,” I’ve been doing some research on Fall crafts for kids! There are so many cute ideas floating around the internet. Here are 12 of my favorite Fall kids’ crafts to get your creative juices flowing.

wow, love so many of these. I think we are going to do the leaf print art and the garland….:)

we just started pulling out our fall decor. About 4 years ago I made this huge “natural inspired/looking” floral centerpiece out of tissue paper and love what it looks like when I put it in a red vase….

I posted this idea for a fall table centerpiece. Looks really neat, and cost me NOTHING! We gathered all our decor from nature. :)

Just a note to say I love the simplicity of the Leaf Art, it’s beautiful. Great idea. It made me smile. Many times we forget the simple things in life. Thank you for the reminder, Enza

These are great, Myra!

We used to make a variation of the pine cone turkey. We traced around the boys’ hands on orange and yellow construction paper, then they cut out the tracings of their hands. Instead of individual “feathers,” we used the hand tracing as the feathers on pinecone turkeys. And we DID use these as placecards for Thanksgiving dinner! They were a big hit. :)

So many cute ideas! I can’t wait to make some of these this fall. Last autumn we made a banner that turned out pretty cute (http://www.travelingmel.com/index.php/TravelingMel/2011/11/10/fall-banner). Looking forward to putting it up on the Equinox.

What a great list. I think there are even a few that my 20-month-olds could do. Love the hand print family tree! Thanks so much!

What great ideas! I particularly love the fact that the felt leaf garland can double as a lacing activity for a bored toddler. Plus, cute!

Just wanted to let you know that I’ve featured you on our weekly roundup of the Internet’s best blog posts! Happy blogging!

Can’t find the leaf art tutorial(katie brown’s website doesn’t show it). What kind of paint did you use?

24 Emily Allmond November 4, 2012 at 10:10 am

I love these ideas, they are all so cute! I made a few small modifications to them to fit my personal specifications. I recently started volunteering at a Rec Center, tutoring kids and their homework room needs some serious sprucing up! I wrote a blog post about what I intend to do with the kids and I linked back to your site to give you credit for finding/coming up with all these great kids crafts!
