Easy Thanksgiving Craft: A Thankful Book
November 19, 2008
I really like the idea of encouraging children to think about the meaning behind Thanksgiving… besides turkey that is.
The idea with this project is to make a Thanksgiving book craft that illustrates all the reasons why your child is thankful. You can make this as elaborate or simple as you want. You don’t even have to “make” the book. You could purchase a small scrapbook, Thanksgiving stickers, etc. and make this a really simple project.

This easy Thanksgiving centerpiece craft is so easy to make and still looks great! You won’t believe how easy it is to create this Fall centerpiece craft.
Even little kids can do this one!
It looks great on a holiday table or as an Autumn decoration around the house, and it’s made of mostly recycled materials!
Easy Thanksgiving Pinecone Turkey Craft

This Easy Thanksgiving Pinecone Turkey Craft is a really easy Thanksgiving craft for children of all ages to do, and it’s also pretty cute.
After all, what would a Thanksgiving with children be without some kind of pinecone turkey? This one is a little bit different than most that you see for the holiday.
You can also do this project with construction paper instead of foam!

Thanks to Martha, you may have already seen this craft… although I remember making these when I was a kid - looong before Martha was doing her thing.
I even helped the kids make a couple of these for Father’s Day a couple of years ago. We covered them in fake leather that we made from paper bags.
Anyway now that the kids are a bit older and we’re doing the homeschool thing, we are in dire need of organization… so the recycled cereal box is coming back out at our house! Here’s how to make it…
Magnetic Pencil Pockets as a Back to School Craft
July 30, 2008
Here in our area the stores are now full of all those Moms and kids scrambling to get their school supplies ready for the next school year. (Since we’ve decided to homeschool this year, we’re lucky enough not to be part of the back to school pandemonium.) All those back to school supplies can cost a fortune, so here are some back to school recycling crafts that might help take some of the edge off!
