Can you believe Halloween is only a few weeks away? We have already shared lots of great Halloween crafts but we have a few more we are excited to share like this Sponge Painted Jack-o-Lantern. It is super simple to make, only 3 steps, and it’s a fun craft that gives kids an opportunity to create a truly unique piece of artwork. It is also a perfect preschool craft for learning about triangles.
Supplies you will need:
- white and brown cardstock paper
- orange and black paint
- sponge cut into small triangle
- small paper plate
- paint brush
- scissors
- glue stick
Directions:
1. Cut out pumpkin and paint it
Start by cutting a pumpkin shape out of your white cardstock paper. Paint it orange and then set it aside to try completely.
2. Cut triangle out of sponge
Cut a few small triangle shapes out of your sponge. Squeeze a small amount of black paint on your paper plate.
3. Paint eyes, nose and mouth using triangle sponge
Dip your triangle sponge into your black paint then press it onto your pumpkin to make eyes on your jack-o-lantern. Continue dipping the sponge into the paint and onto your pumpkin and make a one-of-kind jack-o-lantern face.
