Popsicle Stick Witch’s Broom Craft Idea
There’s no reason to be “witchy” about today’s crafty post! Not only is this Popsicle Stick Room On The Broom kid craft great to celebrate the upcoming Halloween season with BUT it also goes along perfectly with the adorable “children’s book” 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? It’s so much fun! Plus at Glued To My Crafts, we believe life is BOOOO-tter when you are crafting with your little one and we made the instructions for this project super simple so anyone can recreate it today!
Now 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!
