Over the past couple of weeks, we have really been embracing the upcomming Halloween holiday. All of our favourite Halloween movies are being watched and I have been trying to incporporate a variety of Halloween like things into our meals and crafts.
We picked up some wonderful wooden goodies during our trip to Vermont that the kiddos really enjoyed painting. These little things came out so well and the kids loved decorating the house with things that they made.
Many wooden items can be found in your local craft store and can be painted in any number of ways. I'm a big fan of using a splash of glitter while the paint is still wet {if it is going to be a decoration} , to give it that extra pop. What I really enjoy is being able to take out the decorations from years past and seeing how much my little ones have changed, not only physically, but also in their creative and artistic abilities.

Happy Halloween painting!
