One of our teachers this quarter saw these on Pinterest and we decided to try our hand at making them. {See what I did there, hehe?} I think ours turned out super cute, what do you think?
Fall is the best time for so many things; football, holidays, and fun preschool crafts. In class we've been talking recently about all things fall and getting ready for our Thanksgiving Feast. Our students at Little Builders Preschool, a ministry of YWAM (Youth With A Mission) San Diego/Baja, are in charge of decorations. We've been extremely busy getting ready and these Silly Scarecrows were too hard to pass up. Plus who doesn't love handprint crafts. Parents eat that stuff up, am I right?? They are super cute though so I can't complain!

It's that time of year, Fall. My favorite season of the year. I've often wondered why I love Fall so much. Is it because of the cooler weather? Is it because of the beautiful colors on the trees? Is it because Fall equals College Football {ROLL TIDE!}?
I like to think it is all of those things plus as a preschool teacher, I've realized that there are crazy amounts of fun holidays and therefore fun preschool crafts to be done in the Fall. I mean you have Apple Season, Mexican Independence Day, Pumpkin Season, Harvest Parties, Halloween, Fall Trees, Fall Animals, Veterans Day, Thanksgiving, and of course Christmas. Have you noticed that there are so many cute crafts available for all of these units?? This year for our Thanksgiving Feast with YWAM (Youth With A Mission) San Diego/Baja, our preschool students at Little Builder's Preschool are in charge of decorations. We have been busy making turkeys, fall trees, Mayflower Journey, placemats, Thankful Candles, Silly Handprint Scarecrows, etc*. The list literally goes on & on. *Click on the Links for tutorials on how we made each of these. It's officially November which means that Thanksgiving is just around the corner! YAY!! It shouldn't be any secret that Fall is my absolute favorite time of year. It has all the awesome, fun and easy-to-make-crafts-for holidays all rolled into just a few short months.
I was looking through Pinterest today for some new cute craft ideas for our students at the Little Builders Preschool, a ministry of YWAM San Diego/Baja, in Mexico to make to help decorate our tables and walls for the upcoming Thanksgiving Feast. I came across this awesome tablescape with a sweater covered glass vase. Well being that I was in preschool craft mode I instead saw a cardboard tube vase covered in sweater. I immediately thought how cute would it be to make some "vases" out of the 100s (ok 1000s) of cardboard tubes we have lying around. And what if we wrapped said "vases" in twine or string. Not only would these look cute (hopefully) but would also act as a GREAT addition to our sensorial stations. |
AuthorI am on an amazing adventure traveling the world with Jesus. After 7 years of teaching preschool in Alabama, God called me to the mission field in Mexico full time. I led short-term missions trips for 6 years and the Lord opened the door for me to mix both of my passions, missions and teaching. I am now the director of Little Builders Preschool and we will soon be opening a full International K-12 school. The current students are missionary kids but will be open to the local community in the future. As a full-time missionary, I do not receive a traditional pay check. I rely on the generous support of friends, family & people like you. As any teacher does, much of what we use in our school is purchased by me out of my own personal funds. Please consider making a tax-deductible donation to our ministry and help our students reach their potential in education.
