Halloween Crafts - Day 9 - QTip Skeleton

So we are having a BOY!  Yesterday was our big appointment and there it was, easy to see, that the McCain name will live on.  Conlyn is over the moon and Callie is excited to play tractors with her new baby brother.  I didn't put much effort into this page but will fix it later since it will be the first page of his baby book. 

Today's post is actually the first Halloween craft the kiddos did on their playdates.  I loved this project because it allowed Callie to practice matching.  I made the pattern using Elmer's Glue and she layered the QTips on it to match.  This is when we realized our kids are perfectionists and if copying from an image, it has to match exactly.  If making this with your kids, I recommend cutting the rib pieces in half and not having them layer one QTip on another - they teeter and take a while to dry.  This was originally inspired by a pin Meghan found on Pinterest.

 

Supplies:

Black Marker, Scissors, Elmer's Glue, QTips, Black Construction Paper
