Back to our Craft Box

So back to the Craft Box. Remember this is nothing more than a place to keep certain craft items that you can just pull out and do a simple craft.

Well since it is Halloween we are going to Pull out that Craft box and Let the kids have some fun.

Give each Child a Paper Bag. For this I like the ones with Handles. You can also grab some great plan canvas bags for cheap at most Craft stores. Then you can reuse these over and over.

Let each child decorate the bag how they want. Either for a shopping bag or for their Trick-o-Treat bag. Depending on the age provide Paint, Crayons or Markers. I prefer Paints for this project and the Canvas bags. We love doing hand print creations. Like Hand print hearts or Turkeys. For Halloween you can decorate with pumpkins and other. For more elaborate bags you can use the Pumpkin Carving Stencil sheets and put the designs on the Bags instead.

Have fun with your bag and remember everything you need except maybe the bags should always be in your Craft Box. So if it is not there...Add it!!!
