Fall Art and Cooking








The weather has turned cool. So we are indoors doing all sorts of fun things. A few really fun and easy October crafts I’ve found on the web: Fingerprint trees. Evelyn loved this! I drew the tree and then she dipped her fingertips in all sorts of fall colors to create the leaves. Ghost feet: I painted Evy’s feet white and then she imprinted the paint onto black construction paper. Then she added ghost faces.

We made our favorite pumpkin mousse. So easy and not too unhealthy for my two little munchkins. They love the stuff. Just beat one vanilla pudding mix with a teaspoon cinnamon and a can of pumpkin. Add ¼ cup milk- continue to beat. Stir in cool whip tub. We love to dip veggies or graham crackers.
