Pumpkin Mosaic

Our 3 year old is getting very good with the scissors. A lot of the projects we did do over summer involved her cutting something. So this project started with her cutting strips of orange paper and then we tore them into smaller pieces. Baby brother who is 1 year old even helped with that process.

What You Need

Construction Paper
Scissors
Glue
White Paper










Directions

1. First you need a picture of a pumpkin. You can either search for a coloring page online, freehand a pumpkin yourself, or if someone could tell me how to attach a pdf of what I used I would be happy to share my quick drawing (I am not sure how to do this!).

2. Once you have your template have your little one cut/tear out tiny squares of paper. Both Liv and I cut strips of paper about an inch wide and then tore the paper into smaller sections.

3. Using glue adhere the tiny squares onto the pumpkin until it has been filled in.



4. Sit back and enjoy your fine piece of art!
