Jack-O lanterns carving






Ok, our Halloween bags are ready (see previous post), now it is time to make our very own Jack-O lantern!. These lanterns are very simple to make and totally fun, plus, your little one(s) will love to help ;). The good thing about making Jack-O lanterns with "real" pumpkins is that they will become 100% organic waste (go green!), plus, you can save the seeds and plant them with your children, or use them for crafts decoration.

Find here very well explained instructions to make your own Halloween Jack-O lantern. For ideas and patterns visit this link (or a personal selection here)

Below are some pictures of our lantern, have a great time making yours!

Green Halloween Crafts





October is here and Halloween is coming very soon! we made this lovely Halloween bags a couple of days ago, only using old cardboard, paper boxes, newspaper, straws, glue, painting and a lot of excitement!. My little one had loads of fun making it and he was very proud with the results. This is also a lovely way to encourage them to make things by themselves and to keep on re-using material, for a greener world ;)

Below you will find some pictures of our Halloween bags, and also some lovely pictures for some inspiration, enjoy! ;)
