There’s no reason to be “witchy” about today’s crafty post! Not only is this Popsicle Stick Broom kid craft great to celebrate the upcoming Halloween season with BUT it also goes along perfectly with the adorable book “Room on the Broom” by Julia Donaldson.

The witch and her cat are happily flying through the sky on a broomstick when the wind picks up and blows away the witch’s hat, then her bow, and then her wand!  Luckily, three helpful animals find the missing items, and all they want in return is a ride on the broom.  But is there room on the broom for so many friends?  And when disaster strikes, will they be able to save the witch from a hungry dragon?

So what are you waiting for? There’s enough room for everyone!!! Let’s take off on flight by grabbing those craft supplies and getting to work on crafting some one-of-a-kind broom sticks with our children today! Don’t forget to read the book in celebration of your creations! Happy crafting my friends!

Supplies:

* Wavy Paddle Fan Sticks
* Glue
* Paint Brush
* Brown Paint
* Brown/Black Cardstock
* Marker
* Scissors
optional – glitter, sequins, feather etc

Directions:

* First have children paint their popsicle stick completely brown. This is the handle of the broom. Set aside to let it dry completely.
* Next trace your child’s hands on the brown cardstock. Trim those out {you will want two cutouts}
* To finish off the Popsicle Stick Broom – have children glue their handprints to one end of the popsicle stick {fingers facing out} and add other embellishments they see fit. We added a strip of black cardstock and some ribbon to “snaz” it up but you can add whatever you like!
* Once done – display proudly!!!
