These little salt dough pumpkins are super simple. If your kids can roll a ball they can help with their own pumpkin.
We used:
1 cup flour
1/2 cup salt
1/2 cup water
Food coloring (you can use paint after if you perfer)
stick for the stem
Toothpick/Skewer
Mix salt, flour, and water. I used a mixer to get my color to mix evenly.
The kids each rolled a ball
I helped them put the lines in with a wooden Skewer.
We topped it off with a small stick for the pumpkin stem.
We baked for 3 hrs at 250.

Here is the best way I have found to do this. Always turns out beautiful!
Here is what we used:
A handful of leafs
Laminator
Tape
Crayons
We grabbed a few leaves and sent them through the laminator.
Then we used white printer paper and taped it on top, just so the paper wouldn’t move.
We took a few crayons without the wrapper and let the kids rub away.

I love this leafy project for so many reasons. Kids loved the textures. I love that I could go out in my yard and grab supplies.
What we used:
Leaves
Paper
Glue
Pen
1. We gathered leaves. You can let them sit out to dry. I threw then in the oven at 350 for about 10 mins.
2. I grabbed the biggest leaf I could find from my maple tree. Of couse you could find a cut out online to trace, but the kids enjoyed touching a real leaf. We also added a few of the veins, no need to add them all.
3. Trace your pen lines with glue.
4. Crumble the dry leaves over the glue. Dump off excess leaf crumbs.
