We have decided to really work on family time this weekend. I would welcome any craft project ideas that we could do together to put up these holiday decorations around my house. I don't have anything and my children are begging to decorate. Any ideas?

Check out the website above, they have great and easy craft projects for a gerat price. Plus it comes with plenty for many kids. Hope this helps,
I just went to Michaels (craft store) today and they have tons of cute felt and foam Halloween projects on clearence for 99 cents a piece. They also had quite a few kits for around $5. My daughter is not quite two but she loves (!!!) pumpkins (and getting messy) so I got a few for us to do together. Also try googling "Family Fun Halloween Crafts" I get the magazine and they have tons and tons of ideas good for all ages.
Yesterday we made construction paper Jack O'Lanterns. I'm not sure how old your chidlren are, but for my daughter I cut out the pieces and put the tape on so she could stick them on the pumpkin I cut out. It came out adorable...the eyes, nose, and mouth are all over the place. She made one that looks "right" and the other is more of a Picasso Pumpkin. Depending on their ages you can really let them be as creative as they want to be. Just hand over the paper, scissors, and glue and praise them every step of the way!
Have you looked at the Family Fun website? They usually have great craft ideas for the different holidays/seasons.
