Got this crafts from a craft book by Kathy
Ross as known as Katherine Reynolds. She
has several different kids books.
Sock Pumpkin
Materials: Old white sock, stuffing, rubber
band, white glue, scissors, orange and green poster paint, paintbrush, and
black construction paper
Directions:
Cut the toe half off the foot of the sock. Use the rest of the
sock and use more sock pieces if you need to use them, to stuff the toe to form
a round pumpkin. Secure the top with the
rubber band, leaving the top of the sock sticking out of the stem.
Paint the pumpkin orange and the stem green. Twist the stem while wet. Glue on the jack o' lantern face cut from
black construction paper.
Stuffed
Sock Bat
Materials: old black sock, stuffing
(newspaper or cotton balls), scissors, craft glue, black and white construction
paper or felt, pipe cleaners, and red and black yarn
Directions:
Stuff the foot of the black sock and tie with black yarn. Tie the two ends of the yarn together so that
you can hang the bat upside down. Trim
off the excess sock.
Cut eyes, ears, and teeth from the felt or paper, glue them to
the toe end. Give the bat a smile with the red yarn. For the wings, Cut a front and back piece
from the black construction paper or felt.
Glue each front and back together with two or three pipe cleaners in
between, so that the wings can be bent
in different shapes. Glue the wings to
the back of your bat so they stick out.
Now, hang your bat upside down.
