paper bowl pumpkin craft   jack-o-lantern paper bowl craft

To make this Halloween craft you'll need: 
paper bowls
orange acrylic paint - kids washable paint will also work
green, brown and black paper, craft foam or felt
glue stick or glue dots
paint brush
scissors
permanent marker (optional)

First cover your work area and children should wear smocks when making this craft project. Turn the bowl upside down so that you can paint the outside of the bowl with the orange paint. If you are using acrylic paint,
it will dry quickly. Cut the leaf and stem pieces and the black Jack-o-lantern faces while the paint is drying. Using a pencil to draw the faces on the paper first will make this job easier. Once the paint is dry lightly make black, brown or dark orange lines on the bowl to give it more of a "pumpkin look" then use the glue dots to add the remaining features. If you are making these crafty Jacks in a classroom setting, they look really adorable on bulletin boards an walls. You can also staple two together and then hang
the 3-D Jack-o-Lanterns from the ceiling using fishing line.
Kit's tip:
My daughter made some of these Jack-o-Lanterns with yellow candle lit faces as well; they did not photograph well but look terrific!
Give those a try using adhesive backed craft foam.
