It's Halloween. Time to make a black kitty cat for your door.
This is an easy craft for you to do with your preschooler because you most likely have the supplies already. They can learn about different colors and shapes in the process, as well as cut the shapes themselves (if you feel they are ready) and glue the shapes to the plate. Whatever color construction paper you have on hand will work well. I had some glitter paper in our crafting drawer so I used that.
Here's What You'll Need For Your Halloween Cat:
- Construction Paper (Multiple colors.)
- Scissors (adult scissors and/or preschool scissors.)
- Glue (Elmer's glue and a glue stick.)
- Q-tip (for the Elmer's glue.)
- Paper Plate
- Hole Punch
- Ribbon (to hang the plate.)
Time to cut the shapes.
Feel free to cut everything free form unless your preschooler is going to be doing the cutting. Then it's best to trace the shapes on the paper. As you can see here I chose to cut everything free form to give it more of a "homemade craft look."
Please assist your preschooler during the cutting process.
