We've been hitting Disneyland up hard the last couple of days which is always fun. Yesterday after Blair's nap I decided to do some crafting with her after getting inspired on Pinterest. I chose a couple simple Halloween projects and the Candy Corn Mosaic is the one that turned out the cutest. Take a look!
Materials: black paper, white crayon, yellow/orange/white scrap paper, glue stick, scissors
Honestly if you are looking for some free time from your toddler, this kept her occupied for quite a while. She only really needed my help adding sections of glue (if you do it all at once it dries too fast). Cutting up the colored squares took me no time and drawing the candy corn on black paper with a white crayon was a cinch. I glued one of each color in the correct spot so she knew what went in each section. The rest was history! She had fun and I got some dishes/kitchen cleaning accomplished. Win-win! You'll have to let me know if you guys try this at home this weekend!
