Why autumn crafting with children is so valuable
When crafting with children, the journey is the reward. Children practise their fine motor skills while cutting, gluing and colouring. At the same time, they improve their concentration and learn to bring their creative ideas to life. The finished result, a great work of art, is a reward for their efforts and a memento of the wonderful time spent together. For you as a family, this means valuable time away from screens and everyday stress.
Autumn craft ideas to copyFor the little onesColoured autumn leaves are versatile materials. Create a picture of nature together with your child, stick the leaves on a sheet of paper and turn it into a real work of art with a little colour. Chestnuts are also suitable: Use toothpicks to stick arms and legs into them, glue on wiggly eyes and use pipe cleaners to add little tails or antennae to make hedgehogs, caterpillars or little imaginary creatures that are perfect for playing with. Hats or skirts can be made from the shells of beechnuts. The caps of the acorns also make great headdresses, eyes or buttons for your figures.for primary school childrenAn autumnal lantern is particularly popular. For this you need a simple glass, transparent paper in warm colours and dried leaves. Glue everything to the glass and light it from the inside with an LED candle. This will bring you cosy light on dark autumn evenings. Small figures made from cones are also great, which you can decorate with felt, colourful fabric scraps and natural materials. Make owls, mice or even little forest spirits to create a cosy atmosphere on the windowsill.for older childrenA homemade door wreath made from twigs is a lovely autumn decoration for your own home. Tie the twigs together to form a ring and decorate it with nuts, cones, leaves and perhaps a pretty bow. This marvellous decoration will adorn your entrance area and delight every guest. Another lovely project: a mobile made from natural materials. Simply attach strings to a sturdy branch and hang chestnuts, small wooden discs, leaves or feathers from them. The mobile moves easily in the breeze and brings the magic of autumn into the children's room.
