We read a lot of Halloween books in October. Every week I brought back from the library a few. I didn’t read most of them myself, but I will share some shared Halloween reads in my Saturday What My Child Is Reading post. I thought some “summary craft” is in order, but our days have been busy, and we were rapidly running out of time. So yesterday I set up this collage activity before I picked up Anna from her afterschool.
She was actually more interested in going outside and convincing two teenage girls that they have no better use of their time than to push her on a tire swing for an hour. Eventually she got back home and got to work.
She drew a haunted house with ghosts coming out of the windows. Thanks to her papa, she is really into drawing ghosts this Halloween.
Frankenstein Monster was a surprise touch. I didn’t know she knows Frankenstein. She explained to me that he is a lumbering sad creature.
This is Anna’s finished masterpiece. Go Pumpkins!
I couldn’t resist making one too. Anna loved my moon

Your moon is very clever =)
Somehow Johnny knows about vampires, and I can't figure it out. I think it is funny that Anna knows Frankenstein is a lumbering sad creature, but draws such a happy face on him. I think her large ghost is especially cute =)
Anna's description of Frankenstein's monster is pretty good. It's amazing the things children pick up. C and E were playing some kind of vampire game today, I said - why don't you pretend about Barbies instead? C grinned at me, and said - zombee Barbies? And, we don't even have cable :)
This is so cute. Her description of Frankenstein is cute. I love your moon too.
Ha ha ha ha. What I would give to hear her sales pitch to the two teenage girls :). Love her drawing too.
That must have been some sales pitch.
I love her Halloween collage, my kids would have made a similar one.
Great collage! Her comment about Frankenstein is so grown up. I bet those girls never knew what hit them!
Little Wonders' Days
So clever of her to get the girls to take her out for a swing ride! It was probably just what she needed after a long day!
I love her Frankenstein description! Great art too!
Love both of your pictures! And your moon!
I love that you combined so many ways to craft! What wonderful final projects!
