Easy Thanksgiving Crafts for Children

Thanksgiving crafts for children are always a popular tradition! Here is a thanksgiving kids craft that they can actually do themselves – no scissors, no glue, no mess and no fail… even a toddler can make this easy craft. It is an adorable pumpkin made from a roll of toilet paper! I can’t take credit for this idea, my awesome sister-in-law Darcy got it from her grandson’s teacher! So it’s even teacher-tested! Let’s get started ...

Here’s all you need:

22 x 18” fabric square in a festive fall-colored print (short on time...you can buy “Fabric Squares” at fabric stores already pre-cut!)

A branch from the yard or popsicle stick that forms the stem. I found these cute sticks with shapes on them at the craft store. Just use a brown magic marker to color them!

Assortment of ribbons and tulle to tie around the popsicle stick/branch and I added cute jeweled leaf stickers to decorate the shaped top!
You can even give them a small piece of cardstock to decorate and write what they are most thankful for, then punch a hole, and tie it to the pumpkin.

Lay out the fabric and place the roll of toilet paper in the center

easy thanksgiving craft idea

Grab the corners of the fabric and one at a time, stuff them into the center of the toilet paper roll.. just squish them into that cardboard ring!
Your pumpkin is done, now grab your "stem" and tie on some pretty ribbons, then add the sticker. Then push it right into the middle of the toilet paper roll!
