Simple Pumpkin Cup Stamps

Don’t you just love activities that are so simple but super fun! These Pumpkin Cup Stamps were great because I only needed 3 materials and the kids had fun! They are a great way to celebrate fall!

Fall is here and pumpkins are everywhere! It is a fun time to enjoy pumpkin crafts! We were able to wip this together in just a minute!

P.S. If you’re new here….Hi! I am Tracy, a teacher made mom, who is learning to craft joy with my kids, one step at a time. Here at your twin mom, we love to share crafty ideas, mom tips, and inspiration to help you enjoy crafting memories with your kids!

 

 

Pumpkin Cup Stamps:

 

Materials

Cups

White Paper (we used white computer paper because that’s what I had but your could use construction paper or water paint paper…use what you have)

Paint: Orange Paint (we used washable kids paint) & you could use green marker for the stems or a little green paint

For more crafty fun, you could:

Add glitter (we like to use glitter glue)

Add faces

Add more colors and talk about different colored pumpkins

 

Pumpkin Cup Stamps Instructions:

Prep: you can get out some orange paint (you could get out a little green paint for the stems or just a green marker to color on the stems), a paper plate for the paint, some white paper, and protect your table with a placemat or tablecloth.

Step 1. Pour out a little orange paint on a plate.

Step 2. Grab a cup and stamp it onto your paper.

 

Step 3: Once you stamped your pumpkins onto your paper, you can add more details.

  

Step 4: You could add a green stem with crayons or markers.

For more crafty fun, you could:

Add glitter (we like to use glitter glue) to add some fun hair dos on the pumpkins

Add faces with different feeling

Add more colors and talk about different colored pumpkins

Step 5: Let it dry!

Step 6: You could use it as a keepsake or a decoration. You could frame it or put it in a scrapbook for memories.

 

Tips for Ages/Different Levels so it’s family friendly:

Preschoolers: H and M loved stamping the pumpkins all over their paper. They liked painting in the pumpkin to make it all orange. They liked adding little faces and adding the green stem. You could have them name their pumpkins and talk about if they are a pumpkin family or talk about how they are feeling. You could write how each pumpkin is feeling under the pumpkin and they could trace the words, like sad, mad, happy or add numbers under each pumpkin and count them.

Simplify: Toddler J really enjoyed just grabbing the cups. It may help to let him play with the cups before there is paint on them. Then, introduce the paint. Show him how you stamp the paint and then he or she may see you do the Pumpkin Cup Stamps and want to join in. Work on his or her language skills, “First pick up them cup, then dip in orange paint.” J was done after a couple stamps and that is okay, it is all about the process more than the completed art project for now. J also liked dipping different materials, like his truck,  into the orange paint (do what you’re comfortable with).

More Complex: You could build Comprehension Skills. They could create a story about their pumpkins. They could envision a story just using one main picture or you could give them 5-10 pieces of white paper and they could paint their main character with the pumpkin cup stamp (depending on how much time you have). They could add in another pumpkin and have one of silly hair or a different color of hair to tell a story. You could have them draw, color, write, or finger paint in more details onto their pages.

Way to go mom! Check out all of the skills you’re kids are practicing!

Your Kids Practiced Learning Skills:

Early Writing Skills/Fine Motor Skills: Finger painting their pumpkins, grasping the cups.

Early Math Skills: Counting their Pumpkin Cup Stamps

Listening Skills/Attention Span: Following directions on how to stamp pumpkins and completing their project

Problem Solving: Creating a story about the pumpkins

 

If you want to tie in More Learning Fun:

Math: Counting pumpkins, measuring pumpkins, weighing pumpkins

Science: learn about how pumpkins grow or feel the inside of a pumpkin, Mix Red and Yellow to create orange

Language: write a story about the pumpkins, read a story about pumpkins

Social Skills: Create and write the feeling word (i.e. happy, sad) of each pumpkin

Faith: How God designed the Earth to grow us food like pumpkins.

 

The ideas are endless! Just do what works for you and your kids and have fun:)

Will you try the Pumpkin Cup Stamps with your Kids?

 

Enjoy!

“And finally whatever things are true, noble, ju “And finally whatever things are true, noble, just, pure, lovely, of good report, having virtue, or anything praiseworthy, let him think on these things” (Philippians 4:8). The more time my kids and I spend together and the more they are with each other, the more peace and Thanksgiving we discover. So often, when we are overwhelmed, I think where can I take them to release these overwhelming emotion...I continue to see God encouraging me to press into these moments, seek him alongside my children and their feelings instead of expecting an external place or circumstance to make them feel better. The Lord’s peace and joy lives in our hearts, and I see my children getting to know each other better and help more. Lean into the messy hard moments and find the Lord’s joy right where you are! Happy Twin Momspiration Tuesday! 💞💞#phillipians4v8 #christmastime #christianmom #lovemotherhood #godisgoodallthetime #momspiration #jesusisthereasonfortheseason
We learned about the light of Jesus at Bible and B We learned about the light of Jesus at Bible and Breakfast time....and then Thomas Kinkade to discover he was known as “The Painter of Light”! Many of his paintings were to inspire faith hope and love. I just love how God shows He is interlaced into everything we learn about on this earth. Jesus lights up the darkness and we can find him throughout history!
