Another pumpkin?
"What" you say, "another paper plate pumpkin?" The kids wanted to paint and I wasn't feeling very creative. Yeah, it happens. Even the craftiest crafters, can't be crafty all the time.

Overalls
This is the latest craft my favorite three year old did. I free handed the shape of overalls on card stock and cut it out. She sponge painted them blue and glued on the buttons. (Thanks mom for those awesome buttons!)

Counting Beads
This is the latest project that I did with my favorite three year old smarty pants. I bought the foam numbers at the dollar store a couple years ago and forgot about them. I've had the foam beads for a couple years too, and have used them for lacing practice with my little friends. I rediscovered the numbers the other day and decided to use them for this. 
First I taped six pieces of paper together to make one large piece. (I didn't have any poster board, and sure as heck wasn't making a trip out with the poop troop for one thing.) Next I glued down the numbers 0-10 and drew the lines. Now it was time for my favorite three year old to glue on the beads. As you can see, she glued one bead next to the 1, two beads next to the 2, and so forth. I should also mention that she did this with no help, and got it perfect! She was very proud of her work and hung the finished product in her room.

Watermelon
This is a watermelon slice made from half of a paper plate. The seeds were cut out of construction paper. Cute and easy!

Cat in The Hat
This is a Cat in the Hat I drew for my favorite three year old, or as she calls it, "Hat in the Cat."Oh Christmas Tree
This is a Christmas tree I made with my favorite twins last year. I rolled up a piece of green construction paper into a funnel and had the little guys glue construction paper circles (ornaments) all over it. I made the angel afterword because the tree was looking naked with nothing on top. She looks all fancy, but she's really just a smaller construction paper funnel with some little paper body parts.
