Warming up for Halloween with these cute little monsters :)
This Halloween is special. Why? Because my daughter is now two years old and this is the first Halloween where she can actually understand and participate in all the Halloween hoopla!
Now, she is too young for the seriously spooky things so I decided to introduce Halloween to her with these cute little cardboard tube craft monsters!
She knows that humans have two eyes, no horns, and regular teeth. So, seeing these outliers (one or three eyes, horns, saw-shaped teeth), she immediately gathered she was looking at some weird creatures that we happen to call monsters.
But, since they look funny and harmless she had a great time making this craft and then playing with these little new friends of her.
