Beaded Pumpkin Craft for Kids

Directions

1. Take the five orange pipe cleaners and twist them together at their centers. Try to get them as centered as possible, but it's okay if they're a little off.
2. Slide orange pony beads onto each of the ten legs (two per pipe cleaner). Aim for 15 to 20 beads per leg if you have enough; otherwise 12 will work.
3. Gather all the beaded legs together and pull them upward so they meet.
4. Twist the tops of the pipe cleaners together to create a stem shape.
5. Wrap the green pipe cleaner around the stem to hide the orange color.
6. Set the pumpkin on its bottom and gently press it down to flatten and round it into a pumpkin shape.
