When the air turns crisp and the leaves start blowing across your patio – it’s time to start thinking about those FALL crafts! Today I present to you our Popsicle Stick Acorns kid craft idea and it’s sure to be “harvest happy” & bring some great autumn memories your way! #gluedtomycrafts

Popsicle Stick Acorn – Fall Kid Craft Idea

These Popsicle Stick Acorn Friends are super easy to whip up and perfect for a more rustic fall theme you in-cooperate into your craft plans. My personal favorite element is the fact that you can make them “smile” with just some wiggle eyes and a Sharpie marker.

Using inexpensive materials like jumbo popsicle sticks, school glue and colored cardstock – you and your child can make some one-of-a-kind pieces that are perfect to turn into a banner for decor OR add another popsicle stick to the back of the finished pieces, to create some puppet play characters.

Whatever you decide to do with your masterpieces, I hope you have fun creating them! You can find the FULL easy peasy kids craft tutorial by scrolling below!

Happy crafting, my friends! If you don’t mind, I would LOVE to see images of your smiling craft stick acorn friends on our Facebook community wall! Snap a few pictures and come share them with us! #gluedtomycrafts
