So two poppy crafts from one project and not wasted material. ![]() ![]() The freeform style means the poppies can look rough and that’s just fine. This is another great task for kids to do. While we were working on this project, my daughter pointed out how the paper we painted on looked like flowers too. Using a black marker we grouped four circles together for the petals and coloured a black center. With enough seeds you can make a whole field of poppies. Sure poppy petals are not as long at the pumpkin seeds but you get the general idea. Once dry just draw the poppy’s center on a piece of paper with a black marker and place four glue dots around the marker center to adhere the pumpkin seeds. Simply paint one side of the seeds, no worry about being neat. This craft is easy and covers my kids’ favourite activity, painting. Still we had these seeds so we incorporated them into our own poppy craft.Īfter washing and drying the seeds, we used the Melissa & Doug poster paint from our Painting with Kids post I did for their blog earlier this year. The hope was to make roasted pumpkin seeds but events from Halloween had me a little preoccupied. This past Halloween my youngest daughter collected pumpkin seeds while we carved our Jack-o-Lanterns. Plus I even share a two crafts we did at home. I know I shared a few poppy crafts before but I felt this was a holiday worthy of a longer 51 Craft Ideas list. Our visit to Pearl Harbor a few years ago brought a better understanding to my kids why remembering is important. Remembrance Day isn’t one of those big holidays that the kids get excited about but that doesn’t mean it’s not important and worth drawing attention to the day.
