I am doing a craft for Maddie's class on Nov. 4. I have to come up with a craft for them to do and I have to fund it. I am looking for any November craft ideas that anyone has!
You can get a lot of different colored noodles and yarn. They can make Native American Jewelry. Or you can get paper grocery bags (which a store can donate) and cut a slit in the front (for the opening of the front), a hole in the bottom (which will be a neck hole) and 2 holes on the side for arms. These can be Native American vests and then they can decorate them w/ paint, beads, feathers, etc. Um...Well I can give you more ideas if you want, like a cute turkey idea. I had to do a lot for teaching. So good luck w/ this!
Does it have to be a Thanksgiving craft or could it be a political craft since that is election day? Not that I have any in mind but it was just a thought.
Maddie, "Kennedy, Eli doesn't need two kites just one." Kennedy, "What if one gets caught in a tree?" Maddie, "Good point!"
Eli, "One boys are in the he-man hater club!"
We were eating dinner at a friends house and got Eli out of the highchair. He brushed all the food off of his hands and shirt onto the floor. He looked up at me and said, "Mom, did we being Blackie?"
Kennedy: "I like BEING lazy, I just don't like being CALLED, lazy!"
Eli walks around the house saying, "I am an obot, I am a danger...."
Kennedy, "Are you really going to go to Chick-fli-a for your Honey Moon?" Maddie, "Probably! If my husband will let me."
Jake placed a CTR (choose the right) sticker on his Yoda so that Yoda will make good choices when using the force to fight the "bad guys." Jake brings Matthew a Nutty Bar and says, "Dad, we need to eat this. I need my life back! Okay?"
Mom slams on the breaks while backing out of the garage... Jake: "oh no, not again!!"
Kennedy: "Dad, can you count to 1,003?" Dad: "uhm, yes, but it would take a really long time." Kennedy: thinks for a minute... "Okay, you can count to 1,001!"
Matthew walked in on Kennedy last night. She was laying in bed doing sit-ups. Every time she would go down her head would hit her head board, but she kept doing sit-ups. Kennedy: "...10...21, 22, 23,..." Matthew: "What are you doing?" Kennedy: "Sit-ups! It is really hurting me head, though!....50, 68, 79..." (she can only count to 50!)
Kennedy: "Mom and Dad, look at all the wishing stars!" (we were up at Matthew's childhood home/farm in Spencer, TN-she had never seen a sky full of stars before) Matthew and I: "Wow!" Kennedy: (whispering to herself) "I wish I had super powers!" The next night...
Matthew: (jokingly tells me) "I really wish I had super powers!" We both laugh... Kennedy: (over hears us) "There is a wishing star dad, right there!"
Maddie: "Mom, Paige told me that her moms bum jiggles too!"
Jake: "Mom, what is that bump on your head?" Mom: "That is called a zit, Jake." (I pop it) Jake: "Oh, no! That zit is going to get me!"
Mom: "Kennedy, why don't you tell us what a date means since you wanted to go on one." Kennedy: "A date is when you spend the night with someone."
Kennedy: "I was so sick today and my teacher was so nice to me. She let me lay on her nipples!" Mom: "Her nipples...do you mean her chest?" Kennedy: "Yeah, I guess so."
I saw Matthew at a wilderness conference when I was 14. I fell in love that day...Matthew took about 8 years to notice and fall in love with me. There for awhile, my Jr. year of High School, I had a picture of he and I (that my Dad took on our first date) in the dashboard of my car! We married in Nashville, Tn in 2002. Now we have four kids, are done with law school and have a job and couldn't be happier...well actually I probably could. If I had a live in maid, I would be a lot happier!

There's always the turkey made from their hand print.
Sorry- I'm the least crafty person. Maybe Jen would have some ideas for you. She's super crafty!!

I don't have any ideas of my own, but you could check out tipjunkie.blogspot.com. She has TONS of great ideas for a lot of stuff.
Go to http://www.dltk-kids.com/. It is one of my very favorites for crafts. It also has lots of links to other similar sites
I think since I have been pregnant all my creativity has been sapped. Sorry I don't have more ideas.
