8. Pumpkin Sticker Collage

Stickers are a hit with kids of all ages, and this project is as simple as it gets. It’s a great way to keep little ones engaged while older siblings work on more complex crafts. Plus, it’s a wonderful opportunity to talk about shapes, colors, and patterns.
Materials: Large sheet of paper or cardstock, assorted orange, green, and brown stickers (or any colors your child likes), glue stick, optional: markers, washi tape, or other embellishments.
Instructions: Draw a large pumpkin outline on the paper or let the kids draw their own. Then, let them fill in the pumpkin with stickers—this could be solid orange, a mix of colors, or even a patchwork design. Add a green stem and brown vines with stickers or markers. For extra flair, they can use washi tape to create stripes or borders around their pumpkin. This craft is perfect for making greeting cards, bookmarks, or simply a fun piece of art to hang on the fridge.
Time: 15–30 minutes | Difficulty: Very easy | Budget: Low
