As the leaves begin to change color and the air turns crisp and cool, we know that fall is officially here.

It’s time to embrace the season and celebrate the vibrant hues, cozy sweaters, and, of course, everyone’s favorite orange gourd: the pumpkin!

I really love pumpkins. When used in baked goods they are delicious, and when used as a theme in crafts? They are utterly cute!

With fall already here, I think it’s time to get the kids working on some pumpkin crafts, don’t you?

From painting to cutting to gluing, there’s no limit to the fun and unique ways you can incorporate this beloved seasonal symbol into your home.

Whether your child is a beginner or seasoned crafter, they’ll find an idea here.

These fall crafts are not only fun, but you can also create lasting memories with your children.

Autumn is a magical time of year, so make the most of it by celebrating the simple pleasures of crafting!

None of these ideas need to use real pumpkins, and that’s the whole point – they’re “inspired by” the real thing.

So gather your paper plates, paints, scissors, and yarn (plus foam pumpkins from the Dollar Tree for some of these). Then scroll down to see my favorite pumpkin craft ideas for kids.

Let me know which is your favorite in the comments. Happy autumn crafting!
