🔥Toast your name🔥
Absolutely love doing this one, you just need long sticks and double sided tape. Download the resource from my website and cut out the marshmallow letters. Uppercase and lowercase are included. The children can pretend toast them over the fire images or make their own fire from construction materials or nature.
Comment ‘toast your name’ if you would like the link sending over - free for my members.
A great one for Bonfire Night 🔥

Nature pumpkins
The beautiful golden and orange leaves all around are the perfect colour for a pumpkin nature craft. Collect some when out and about to turn them into a sweet craft. The activity is included in the Halloween activity set. There’s loads of pumpkin themed resources to download on the website. Comment ‘pumpkin’ for the link - free for my members.

🕸️ Stick webs 🕸️
For this one, you only need sticks and string. It’s quite a tricky one so little ones may need guidance and help. For younger children, use shorter sticks and chunkier wool or string.
They look great hanging up for Halloween. Comment ‘Halloween activities’ if you’d like the link to the activity set which includes other nature ideas too! Free for my members.

✨Stick sparklers✨
With Bonfire Night and Diwali coming up soon, there will be plenty of fireworks in the sky. Try making an easy stick sparkler using just a stick, nature and pipe cleaners. Wave them in the air and make some firework sounds.
Our colourful and sparkly pipe cleaners are from @hope_earlyyears - you can use my code KTOUTDOOR10 for 10% off their range of fabulous resources.

Mummy sticks
You only needs sticks, bandages (or white wool/string) and eye stickers. Comment ‘mummy sticks’ if you’d like the link to the resource or search for it on my website. It’s a sweet nature inspired craft to have a go at outdoors or indoors at this time of year. Finding the perfect chunky stick is part of the magic too.

Pumpkin holes for leaves. Use golf tees and hammers or palm drills to create the holes and then push autumn leaves in. A great workout for tiny fingers.
Use the pumpkin afterwards by scooping out the middle and popping a light in, it looks so pretty!
This one is in the pumpkin activity set, comment ‘pumpkin’ if you’d like the link to download the resource - free for my members.
