@tinkerwonderplay: Pumpkin Decorating Party// Pumpkin decorating is one of my favorite ways to celebrate the magic of fall! For this festive invitation, each child had their own pumpkin to transform with an abundance of colorful, sparkly & spooky loose parts. Rather than providing a design to copy, the experience was completely open-ended, giving children the freedom to experiment, make choices & create a pumpkin uniquely their own. The Tinker Trays were filled with @Discount School Supply @colorationsart Halloween foam shapes, adhesive & sparkly pom-poms, sequins, small & large adhesive rhinestones, iridescent gems, wooden mosaic tiles, colorful craft sticks, wooden shapes, adhesive googly eyes, gem stickers, glitter glue & sparkly & regular pipe cleaners. I also provided tempera paint sticks, acrylic paint markers, scissors, fast-drying tacky glue & a hot glue gun with adult assistance. With pumpkins as their canvas, children could draw, layer, arrange, glue & redesign as their ideas evolved. Beyond being a festive fall tradition, this invitation naturally encouraged fine-motor development, hand-eye coordination, creative thinking, decision-making, patterning & self-expression. No templates. No two pumpkins alike. Just an abundance of materials & endless possibilities to tinker, create & make a little Halloween magic! #tinkerwonderplay #processartforkids #halloweenactivities #halloweenactivitiesforkids #pumpkindecorating
